The planar structure RST shown in the figure is roller-supported at S and pin-supported at R. Members RS and ST have uniform flexural rigidity (EI) and S is a rigid joint. Consider only bending deformation and neglect effects of self-weight and axial stiffening.When the structure is subjected to a concentrated horizontal load P at the end T, the magnitude of rotation at the support R, is |
| A. | \(\frac{{P{L^3}}}{{12EI}}\) |
| B. | \(\frac{{P{L^2}}}{{12EI}}\) |
| C. | \(\frac{{P{L^2}}}{{6EI}}\) |
| D. | \(\frac{{PL}}{{6EI}}\) |
| Answer» C. \(\frac{{P{L^2}}}{{6EI}}\) | |
