This model illustrates the calculation of the resulting support force at the center of gravity of a conventionally constructed steel frame. The display shows how supports and support forces are determined in relation to the center of gravity. The linked image shows a schematic structure of the steel frame with clearly visible geometry and positioning of the supports. The analysis provides precise insights into the distribution of forces and serves as a practical demonstration.
