Rise of Three-Hinged Arch for Angle between Horizontal and Arch Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Rise of arch = (Angle between Horizontal and Arch*(Span of Arch^2))/(4*(Span of Arch-(2*Horizontal Distance from Support)))
f = (y'*(l^2))/(4*(l-(2*xArch)))
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Rise of arch - (Measured in Meter) - The Rise of arch is the vertical distance from the centerline to the arch’s crown. It is the highest point on the arch from the reference line.
Angle between Horizontal and Arch - Angle between Horizontal and Arch is the inclination measured from the horizontal reference line to the arch.
Span of Arch - (Measured in Meter) - Span of Arch is the horizontal distance between the two supporting members of an arch.
Horizontal Distance from Support - (Measured in Meter) - Horizontal Distance from Support represents the horizontal distance from any support of the arch to the section being considered.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Angle between Horizontal and Arch: 0.5 --> No Conversion Required
Span of Arch: 16 Meter --> 16 Meter No Conversion Required
Horizontal Distance from Support: 2 Meter --> 2 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
f = (y'*(l^2))/(4*(l-(2*xArch))) --> (0.5*(16^2))/(4*(16-(2*2)))
Evaluating ... ...
f = 2.66666666666667
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
2.66666666666667 Meter --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
2.66666666666667 2.666667 Meter <-- Rise of arch

What is a Three-Hinged Arch?

A three-hinged arch is a geometrically stable and statically determinate structure. It consists of two curved members connected by an internal hinge at the crown and is supported by two hinges at its base. Sometimes, a tie is provided at the support level or at an elevated position in the arch to increase the stability of the structure.

What makes Arches different from Other Structures?

One of the main distinguishing features of an arch is the development of horizontal thrusts at the supports as well as the vertical reactions, even in the absence of a horizontal load. The internal forces at any section of an arch include axial compression, shearing force, and bending moment.
