Chapter 6, Problem 2P

Determine the force in each member of the truss and state if the members are in tension or compression. Set P = 800 lb and P, = 400 lb. -8 ft I 9- 8 ft P2 B.

5. Determine the force in each member of the truss and state if the members are in tension or compression. P1 = 45 kN, P2 = 30 kN. P₂ D 2 m B 1.5 m

Determine the force in members CD ( in kN)of the Pratt truss. State if the members are in tension or compression. Take that P1 = 24 kN , P2 =32 kN and P3 = 43 kN. Tension is (+) and Compression is (-) H 3 m D -2 m--2 m--2 m--2 m--2 m--2 m-
