Cables - Problem No 3 (supported on different levels & subjected to Uniformly Distributed Load - UDL

Показать описание
A suspension cable is supported at 2 points 25m apart. The left support is 2.5m above the right support. The cable is loaded with a uniformly distributed load of 10 KN/m throughout the span. The maximum dip in the cable from the left support is 4m. Find the tension in the supports and maximum & minimum tension in the cable. Also find the length of the cable.
If the cable is supported on frictionless rollers, find the vertical and horizontal forces in the point A. The anchor cables are inclined at 30^o to the horizontal

Do the formulas for vertical load @06:35 onwards still work if the low point of the wire would fall outside of the supports?
