rallelogram ;then H will be the horizontal thrust at each end, and T the directthrust from load to abutment. To ascertain the effect of this thrust,draw a radial line through the centre of the arc at a to meet the line ofthrust in b, draw a tangent through the intersection a parallel with… … graphically into a line which may be scaled to give the bending moment.To the same scale as W was drawn, take unity from J along Ic, givingpoint d ; join da, and parallel to da draw line ce to meet the radial linefirst drawn. Then eh gives the bending moment. By calculation,let W = the load in tons…
