Statically Determinate Structures vs. Statically Indeterminate Structures. Most structures fall into one of the following three classifica-tions: beams, frames, or trusses. A beam is a structural member sub-jected to transverse loads only, and it is completely analyzed when the shear and moment diagrams are found. A frame, or rigid frame, is a structure composed of members which are connected by rigid joints (welded joints, for instance). A frame is completely analyzed when the variations in direct stress, shear, and moment along the lengths of all members are found. A truss is a structure in which all members are usually considered to be connected by hinges, thus eliminating moment in the members. A truss is completely analyzed when the direct stresses in all members are determined
