The document contains problems to determine whether beams, frames, and trusses are determinate, indeterminate, or unstable. Several examples are given of structures that are: 1) Indeterminate by 1 or 3 degrees 2) Determinate 3) Unstable The problems require calculating the number of reactions and members and comparing them to determine the structure's stability.
