Explanation Trusses are designed to support loads and are usually stationary, fully constrained structures. A simple truss consists of straight members connected at joints. For these, truss members are connected at their extremities only and no member is continuous through a joint. Show the truss of 6.31a as shown in Figure 1. Refer to Figure 1. For the truss of problem 6.31a, when started with triangle H D I and adding two members at a time, only joints A , E , J and B are obtained and it is not possible to go further so that the truss is not a simple truss. Show the truss of 6.32a as shown in Figure 2. Refer to Figure 2. For the truss of problem 6

Plane Trusses

It is defined as, two or more elements like beams or any two or more force members, which when assembled together, behaves like a complete structure or as a single structure. They generally consist of two force member which means any component structure …

Equilibrium Equations

If a body is said to be at rest or moving with a uniform velocity, the body is in equilibrium condition. This means that all the forces are balanced in the body. It can be understood with the help of Newton's first law of motion which states that the res…

Force Systems

When a body comes in interaction with other bodies, they exert various forces on each other. Any system is under the influence of some kind of force. For example, laptop kept on table exerts force on the table and table exerts equal force on it, hence th…
