What are the differences between statically determinate structures and statically indeterminate structures?
Following are the differences between statically determinate structures and statically indeterminate structures
Aspect |
Statically Determinate Structures |
Statically Indeterminate Structures |
Equilibrium Conditions |
Conditions of equilibrium are sufficient to
analyze the structure. |
Conditions of equilibrium are insufficient to
fully analyze the structure. |
Bending Moment and Shear Force |
Independent of material and cross-sectional area. |
Dependent on material properties and independent of cross-sectional
area. |
Effect of Temperature and Lack of Fit |
No stresses are caused by temperature changes
or lack of fit. |
Stresses are induced due to temperature changes
and lack of fit. |
Compatibility Conditions |
Compatibility of displacements is not required for analysis. |
Compatibility of displacements is required in addition to equilibrium
equations. |
Ease of Analysis |
Easier to analyze using basic equilibrium
equations. |
Requires additional methods (e.g., force or
displacement methods) for analysis. |
