Key concepts: displacement center, compatible virtual
displacement, & rigid-body virtual displacement
2( ) 02
LB B
A body undergoes a compatible
virtual displacement from position
AB to position B, where thedisplacement center is atD.
A body undergoes a rigid-body virtual
displacement fromAB to AB, and acompatible virtual displacement fromAB
toAB. The displacement centeris atA.

Work of a force:||1 2U Fq = =F q
=1 2 ( )U MWork of a moment:Radian measure formula: s r =
Virtual work: It is the work done by a force or momenton a body during a virtual displacementof the body.
Principle of virtual work:
If a body is in equilibrium, the total virtual workUof
the external force system acting on its free body during
any compatible virtual displacementof its free body is
equal to zero; i.e.,
0 =U

Concluding Remarks
The key concepts in virtual work method include: work of aforce, work of a moment, displacement center, compatiblevirtual displacement, and radian measure formula.
The virtual work method in Statics consists ofthree majorsteps: (a) draw the FBD, (b) draw the VDD with a strategy,and (c) set U= 0 to solve for the unknown.
The strategy in drawing the VDD is to give the free body a
compatible virtual displacementin such a way that the onespecified unknown, but no other unknowns, will be involvedin the total virtual work done.
George Bernard Shaw once said, You see things; and you
say, Why? But I dream things that never were; and I say,Why not?
