A 9.0m span building roof is formed by a statically determinate pin jointed, triangulated framework, and loaded by two imposed actions as shown in figure 1. The structural elements are manufactured from mild steel. The top and bottom chord sections are 152x152x23 UC, the internal sections are 80x80x8 RSA. (a) State the three Laws of Static Equilibrium and calculate the values of the reactions. (b) Stating your sign convention, obtain the sense and magnitude of the internal forces in all the framework elements. Show your answer diagrammatically. (c) Use Castigliano's Theorem to determine the vertical deflection at joint E.
