Foundations Structures: Pinned Frames, Rigid Frames, Arches, and Continuous Beams - Prof. , Study notes of Architecture

A series of lecture notes from a foundations structures course (arch 331) taught by dr. Anne nichols during the spring 2009 semester. The notes cover various topics related to pinned frames, rigid frames, arches, and continuous beams. The form, behavior, and design of these structures, as well as their static and dynamic properties. It also includes information on internal pin connections, arch behavior, and analysis methods.

Pinned Frames 2Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

ARCH 331

Pinned Frames • structures with at least one 3 force body

connected with pins - reactions are equal and opposite - non-rigid - rigid

Pinned Frames 4Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

ARCH 331

Rigid Frames with PINS • frame pieces withconnecting pins

not necessarilysymmetrical

Pinned Frames 5Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

ARCH 331

Internal Pin Connections • statically determinant

3 equations per body - 2 reactions per pin + support forces

Arches • primarily sees compression

a brick “likes an arch”

ARCH 331

Procedure • solve for all support forces you can

draw a FBD of each member - pins are integral with member - pins with loads should belong to 3+ forcebodies - pin forces are equal and opposite onconnecting bodies - identify 2 force bodies vs. 3+ force bodies - use all equilibrium equations

Continuous Beams • statically indeterminate

reduced moments than simple beam

Pinned Frames 14Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

Continuous Beams • loading pattern affects

moments & deflection max Δ

Pinned Frames 16Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

ARCH 331

Continuous Beams • unload middle span max Δ

Pinned Frames 17Lecture 11 Foundations Structures

ARCH 331

Analysis Methods • Approximate Methods

location of inflection points - Force Method - forces are unknowns - Displacement Method - displacements are unknowns
