    Cantilever beams and simple beams have two reactions (two forces or one force and a couple) and these reactions can be obtained from a free-body diagram of the beam by applying the equations of equilibrium. Such beams are said to be statically determinate since the reactions can be obtained from the equations of equilibrium.
