parallel lines of action, and opposite sense are said
to form a couple.

Where d is the perpendicular distance between
the lines of action of F and -F
• The moment vector of the couple is
independent of the choice of the origin of the
coordinate axes, i.e., it is a free vector that can
be applied at any point with the same effect.

Addition of Couples
• Consider two intersecting planes P1 and
P2 with each containing a couple


M 1  r  F1 in plane P1

 
M 2  r  F2 in plane P2
• Resultants of the vectors also form a
couple
     
M  r  R  r  F1  F2 
• By Varigon’s theorem
    
M  r  F1  r  F2


 M1  M 2
• Sum of two couples is also a couple that is equal
to the vector sum of the two couples
Slide #: 10
Couples Can Be Represented by Vectors
• A couple can be represented by a vector with magnitude
and direction equal to the moment of the couple.
• Couple vectors obey the law of addition of vectors.
• Couple vectors are free vectors, i.e., the point of application
is not significant.
• Couple vectors may be resolved into component vectors.

Resolution of a Force Into a Force at O and a Couple
• Force vector F can not be simply moved to O without modifying its
action on the body.
• Attaching equal and opposite force vectors at O produces no net
effect on the body.
• The three forces may be replaced by an equivalent force vector and
couple vector, i.e, a force-couple system.

Any force F acting at a point A of a rigid body can be
replaced by a force-couple system at an arbitrary point O.
It consists of the force F applied at O and a couple of
moment MO equal to the moment about point O of the force
F in its original position.
The force vector F and the couple vector MO are always
perpendicular to each other.

Reduction of a System of Forces to One Force and
One Couple
Any system of forces can be reduced to a force-couple
system at a given point O.
First, each of the forces of the system is replaced by an equivalent
force-couple system at O.
Then all of the forces are added to obtain a resultant force R,
and all of couples are added to obtain a resultant couple vector MO.
In general, the resultant force R and the couple vector MO
will not be perpendicular to each other.
