Statically indeterminate

When a structure's static equilibrium equations have no unique solution

Statically indeterminate is a condition when the equilibrium equations – force and moment equilibrium conditions – are insufficient for determining the internal forces and reactions on that structure. The term, and its opposite, statically determinate, are used in statics, structural mechanics, and mechanical engineering.
