Solution

The vertical reactions can be determined by considering moment equilibrium

moment acting on the structure = 6*1.1=6.6 kNm

moment resisted by structure=2.4*R_A=2.4*R_B

6.6=2.4R_A

R_A = 2.75 kN

Since the resisting moment has to be counterclockwise, R_A=2.75 kN(vertically downwards)

R_B=2.75 kN(vertically upwards)
