Structural Analysis Questions and Answers – Statically Indeterminate Structures-2

This set of Structural Analysis online quiz focuses on “Qualitative Influence Lines For Frames”.

1. Force-displacement requirements are not necessary to be satisfied for statically indeterminate structures.
State whether the above statement is true or false.
a) true
b) false
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Force-displacement requirement along with equilibrium and compatibility conditions are required to satisfy for a statically indeterminate structure.

2. Force-displacement requirement of statically indeterminate structures depend upon which factor?
a) material’s response
b) magnitude of load applied
c) supports
d) position of load applied
View Answer

Answer: a
Explanation: It depends upon material’s response. We have assumed the material to linear elastic for further discussions.

3. Who of the following initially developed force method?
a) Muller
b) Breslau
c) Mohr
d) James clerk Maxwell
View Answer

Answer: d

4. Which of the following conditions form the basis of this method?
a) equilibrium conditions
b) force-displacement conditions
c) load applied
d) compatibility conditions
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: This method is based on compatibility conditions and therefore it is also known as compatibility method.

5. Redundant forces are calculated in last step while using force method.
State whether the above statement is true or false.
a) true
b) false
View Answer

Answer: b
Explanation: Redundant forces are calculated in initial steps in this method. Rest of forces is calculated by using these values.
