If a 130 lb person stands on the plank in the location


A 1 in × 10 in plank on a redwood deck has L = 48 in long and supported on three joists that rest on the ground and so do not bend. The joists act as pin/roller supports for the plank. If a 130 lb person stands on the plank in the location shown, what is the reaction force on each of the joists?
