FAQ

What is the Horizontal Reaction?
Horizontal Reaction is used to balance the bending moment due to vertical reactions and dead load, live load, etc. Horizontal Reaction is usually measured using the Kilonewton for Force. Note that the value of Horizontal Reaction is always positive. Typically, the value of Horizontal Reaction is greater than 0.
Can the Horizontal Reaction be negative?
No, the Horizontal Reaction, measured in Force cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Horizontal Reaction?
Horizontal Reaction is usually measured using the Kilonewton[kN] for Force. Newton[kN], Exanewton[kN], Meganewton[kN] are the few other units in which Horizontal Reaction can be measured.
