Question:

For the frame of Problem 7.17, determine the magnitude and location of the maximum bending moment in member BC.

PROBLEM 7.17

A 5-in.-diameter pipe is supported every 9 ft by a small frame consisting of two members as shown. Knowing that the combined weight of the pipe and its contents is 10 lb/ft and neglecting the effect of friction, determine the magnitude and location of the maximum bending moment in member AC.
