Mobility of a statically indeterminate structure is
- ≤ -1
- B0
- C1
- D≥ 2
Explanation
A statically indeterminate structure has more constraints than needed for zero degrees of freedom, i.e. it is over-constrained. Mobility (DOF) is 0 for a just-rigid determinate structure and negative (≤-1) for an over-constrained/statically-indeterminate one.
