The truss shown in the figure has a span of 36 feet, D= 10 psf, and S= 20 psf. The top chord is 2x10 of No. 2 Hem Fir and is laterally supported along its length by the roof sheathing. Moisture is dry. Temperature is normal. Joints are assumed to be pin connected. Check if the capacity of the top chord for compression and bending using the following load combinations using ASD and LRFD. ASD: D+S LRFD: 1.2D + 1.6 S wo = !0pst + Wg = 20 psf 1. 4@q'= 36ft

Transcribed Image Text:The truss shown in the figure has a span of 36 feet, D= 10 psf, and S= 20 psf. The top chord is
2x10 of No. 2 Hem Fir and is laterally supported along its length by the roof sheathing.
Moisture is dry. Temperature is normal. Joints are assumed to be pin connected.
Check if the capacity of the top chord for compression and bending using the following load
combinations using ASD and LRFD.
ASD: D+ S
LRFD: 1.2D + 1.6S
Wo = !0pst + Wg = 20 psf
