Stability and Determinancy External concerned with the reactions. Internal concerned with the internal forces and moments. A  Stable  Structure   is one that support : a system of loads.  These loads together with the support reactions have to be in  equilibrium and satisfy the three equilibrium  equations  in addition to  conditional equations (if any). Stability of Structures   Statically  Unstable  Structure is one in which: the number of the unknown  reactions is  less than  the  sum of the   available equilibrium and conditional equations (if any).
