King, William Richard, 1852- · New York, J. Wiley & sons; [etc., etc.] · leaf 133
ely. To construct the force diagram we set off, vertically downward,ab equal in length to 0.4 inch to represent the downward force Wi,or AB, to scale; be equal in length to 0.3 inch to represent W2,or BC; and cd equal in length to 0.6 inch to represent W3, orCD. Then we know that da is the closing… … Fig. 84. To find Ri and R2 we must construct the funicular polygonof the forces. Select at random some point 0, distant oh fromthe load line ab, as a pole and draw the vectors oa, ob, oc, and od.From some point j in the line of action of Ri draw a line parallelto the vector oa, and from its point…
