Question: 1. For the frame in Figure P8.33, compute the horizontal and vertical displacements at joint B. Given: I = 150 in.4, E = 29,000 kips/in.2. Consider only the flexural deformations.
2. (a) Compute the vertical displacement of the hinge at C in Figure P8.34. EI is constant for all members, E = 200 GPa, I = 1800 × 106 mm4.
(b) The designer would like to offset the vertical displacement of the hinge at C by moving the support A. How far should support A be moved horizontally?
