orce-diagram and complete the latter. For a correspondingequilibrium polygon, assume any point A in the verticalA\ for an abutment, and draw the successive segmentsAl, 2, etc., respectively parallel to the inclined lines of theforce diagram (rays), thus determining finally the abut-ment B, in B\… … Fig. 36 load-line. This point n, as above determined, is indepen-dent of the location of the pole, 0, (proved in § 329) anddivides the load-line into two portions (V0 = 1.. . n, andVn = nf... 4) which are the vertical pressures which twosupports in the verticals A and B would sustain if thegiven…
