Determine the degree of static and kinematic indeterminacy of the frame structure as shown in the figure. 

A cantilever truss as shown in the figure is subjected to a horizontal load 'P' at joint A. The total number of zero force members in the truss is 

A continuous beam ABC is as shown in the figure. End supports are simple (i.e., A and C) and span AB = span BC = L. There is a concentrated load 'W' at the centre of the span AB while no load over the span BC. E, is same for both the spans. What is the moment at the continuous support B?

A beam ABC is supported and loaded as shown in the figure. Find the support reactions at A and B. (Neglect horizontal reaction at A) 

A simple truss ABC is supported at A and B as shown in the figure. If a point load (P) along BC is applied at joint C in horizontal direction, then what will be the vertical deflection at C ? Assume same C/5 area and same materials (i.e., A, E, I same for all members). 

In a fixed beam of span 'L' subjected to a central concentrated load 'W', the fixed end moment and moment at midspan are
