2D plane frame structures
Below are two 2D plane frame structures (FRAME 1 and 2): You are required (before completing any analysis by hand or using GSA) to qualitatively draw the deflected shape, bending moment, shear force and axial force diagrams for each structure (FRAME 1 and 2). You should then change the supports from encastre to pin supports and repeat the same qualitative exercise described above. Once you have completed the above – create an analysis model of each structure (FRAME 1 and 2) and analyse them using GSA. Compare your qualitative results with those from GSA and describe and explain any differences observed. Do not worry if your qualitative results differ (that is expected) – the important thing is to reason why to demonstrate learning. Note: you are free to choose the length of elements L1 and L2 (suggest between 5 and 10m). Show how you have checked your GSA models for both frames and report on this. For FRAME 1 ONLY determine what value of P3 and P4 will give you a horizontal deflections x = 10mm and vertical deflection z = 15mm (see FRAME 1 Fig. b for reference). Note that both forces are applied simultaneously
