The simply supported queen-post trussed beam shown in the photo is to be designed to support a uniform load of 2 kN/m. The dimensions of the structure are shown in Fig. 10-17a. Determine the force developed in member CE. Neglect the thickness of the beam and assume the truss members are pin connected to the beam. Also, neglect the effect of axial compression and shear in the beam. The cross-sectional area of each strut is 400 mm2, and for the beam 1 = 20(10) mm*. Take E = 200 GPa.

10.7 Composite Structures
Composite structures are composed of some members subjected only
to axial force, while other members are subjected to bending. If the
structure is statically indeterminate, the force method can conveniently
be used for its analysis. The following example illustrates the procedure.
EXAMPLE 10.9
The simply supported queen-post trussed beam shown in the photo is
to be designed to support a uniform load of 2 kN/m. The dimensions
of the structure are shown in Fig. 10-17a. Determine the force
developed in member CE. Neglect the thickness of the beam and
assume the truss members are pin connected to the beam. Also,
neglect the effect of axial compression and shear in the beam. The
cross-sectional area of each strut is 400 mm2, and for the beam
1= 20(106) mm". Take E = 200 GPa.

SOLUTION
Principle of Superposition. If the force in one of the truss members
is known, then the force in all the other members, as well as in the beam
can be determined by statics. Hence, the structure is indeterminate to
the first degree. For solution the force in member CE is chosen as the
redundant. This member is therefore sectioned to eliminate its capaci
to sustain a force. The principle of superposition applied to the structure
is shown in Fig. 10-176.
