Problem 3: For the weightless truss shown, calculate the vertical displacement of point c under the following d EA = 25,000 k conditions: 4 ft (a) due to the 10-kip point load at point c; (b) due to member ab being fabricated 0.15 inch short; (c) 1.0 inch vertical settlement of point b. You may assume that all members are braced against instability. Provide answers for each of (a), (b), and (c) assuming they occur independently. a 10 kips 20 ft 4 ft -
