Propped Cantilever — Indeterminate Classifier

Fixed-wall cantilever with an added roller prop under a UDL; introduces statically indeterminate classification (DSI = 1) — the engine correctly refuses to solve and explains why compatibility is required.

Category: beam · Difficulty: Intermediate

Solution

This structure is statically indeterminate — the determinate solver does not report unique support reactions for it.

Open this example in StatIQ

All reaction values are computed by the StatIQ structural engine, not generated text. Signs follow the solver's convention: a positive R_y acts upward, a negative R_y downward; a positive M is counter-clockwise.
