Following are the differences between statically determinate structures and statically indeterminate structures
| Aspect | Statically Determinate Structures | Statically Indeterminate Structures | 
| Equilibrium Conditions | Conditions of equilibrium are sufficient to
  analyze the structure. | Conditions of equilibrium are insufficient to
  fully analyze the structure. | 
| Bending Moment and Shear Force | Independent of material and cross-sectional area. | Dependent on material properties and independent of cross-sectional
  area. | 
| Effect of Temperature and Lack of Fit | No stresses are caused by temperature changes
  or lack of fit. | Stresses are induced due to temperature changes
  and lack of fit. | 
| Compatibility Conditions | Compatibility of displacements is not required for analysis. | Compatibility of displacements is required in addition to equilibrium
  equations. | 
| Ease of Analysis | Easier to analyze using basic equilibrium
  equations. | Requires additional methods (e.g., force or
  displacement methods) for analysis. |
