Types of Support, Reaction And Their Applications

Types of Support in civil engineering 

Normally Types of support used in construction are…

List of Support 

  1. Simply support
  2. Fix support
  3. Pin or Hinged support
  4. Rolled support

Simply Support

Simply Support is that type of support on which member-only rest without any bonding
That type of support only resists vertical force not horizontal and moment force…
for example:-
brick resting on two brick

Application in real life construction

Bridge construction is the best application on simply support 

Fix Support

Fix Support is also known as a rigid support
That type of support carried horizontal, vertical, and also moment force…
In structural analysis has three unknowns

Application in real life construction

for example:-
beam and column in RCC work

Pin or Hinged support

That type of support carried horizontal and vertical force but not moment force…

Application in real life construction

for example:-
Door and windows connection with wall or frame 

 

Rolled support

That type of support carried vertical force only but not horizontal and moment force…

Application in real life construction 

for example:-
Sliding windows, Table with wheel
