This document outlines a module on structural theory from Saint Joseph College in the Philippines. The module covers determinacy and stability of structures like beams, rigid frames, and trusses. It defines determinate and indeterminate structures and explains how to determine if a beam, rigid frame, or truss is determinate or indeterminate using mathematical formulas. The document also discusses stability, explaining that structures can be unstable if there are not enough reactive forces or if the lines of action of reactive forces intersect or are parallel. Videos are linked to further explain stability and determinacy of trusses.

MODULE 1…CONTINUATION LESSON 2 - DETERMINACY AND STABILITY OF STRUCTURES Learning Outcomes: At the end of this module, the students must be able to:
Identify the structure if it is A beam, truss, or rigid frame
Identify the structure if it is statically determinate, statically indeterminate and/or stable DETERMINACY OF BEAMS AND RIGID FRAMES A structure is said to be statically determinate when all the forces of the structures can be determined using the three equations of equilibrium and statically indeterminate if otherwise. Indeterminate structures are structures having more unknown forces than available equilibrium equations. For beams and rigid frames:
Where: r is the number of unknown support reactions
n is the total number of parts STABILITY OF BEAMS AND RIGID FRAMES A structure will be geometrically unstable—that is, it will move slightly or collapse—if there are fewer reactive forces than equations of equilibrium; or if there are enough reactions, instability will occur if the lines of action of the reactive forces intersect at a common point or are parallel to one another. If the structure consists of several members or components, local instability of one or several of these members can generally be determined by inspection. If the members form a collapsible mechanism, the structure will be unstable. We will now formalize these statements for a coplanar structure having n members or components with r unknown reactions. Since three equilibrium equations are available for each member or component, we have
If the structure is unstable, it does not matter if it is statically determinate
or indeterminate. In all cases such types of structures must be avoided in practice To ensure the equilibrium of a structure or its members, it is not only necessary to satisfy the equations of equilibrium, but the members must also be properly held or constrained by their supports. Two situations may occur where the conditions for proper constraint have not been met. Link of videos DETERMINACY OF TRUSSES For any problem in truss analysis, it should be realized that the total number of unknowns includes the forces in b number of bars of the truss and the total number of external support reactions r. Since the truss members are all straight axial force members lying in the same plane, the force system acting at each joint J is coplanar and concurrent. In particular, the degree of indeterminacy is specified by the difference in the numbers (b + r ) – 2j. STABILITY OF TRUSSES If a truss will be unstable, that is, it will collapse, since there will be an insufficient number of bars or reactions to constrain all the joints. Also, a truss can be unstable if it is statically determinate or statically indeterminate. In this case the stability will have to be determined either by inspection or by a force analysis.
