To receive marks for this question, you must submit a hard copy of your FBD at the end of your test.  Do not write in the text box.

Consider the frame that is loaded as shown in Figure P17.

The frame consists of multiple beams welded together. The frame is supported at three locations, by a guided roller, pin and a fixed support as indicated in the figure. 

Draw the complete free-body diagram (FBD) of the frame using the parameters given in the figure.

Instructions

• Show all external loads acting on the frame.
• Include relevant dimensions shown in the figure.
• Label all reaction forces and moments clearly.
• Include a clearly defined coordinate system  (x and y axes, and moments).
• Ensure you use the correct numerical values and units where they are provided.
• Do not calculate reactions. 
• Present distributed loads as correctly labelled distributed loads, i.e., do not present or calculate the equivalent point load.

Use the following sign convention:

• Positive
  Image failed to load: x
  x is to the right.
• Positive
  Image failed to load: y
  y is upward.
• Anti-clockwise moments are taken as positive.
