Problem 349 | Equilibrium of Non-Concurrent Force System

$\Sigma M_B = 0$

$24A_V + 16(240) = 36(400) + 12(600)$

$A_V = 740 \, \text{ lb}$           answer
 

 

$\Sigma M_A = 0$

$24B_V + 12(400) = 16(240) + 12(600)$

$B_V = 260 \, \text{ lb}$           answer
 

$\Sigma F_H = 0$

$B_H = 240 \, \text{ lb}$           answer
