A truss that is pinned at one end and on rollers at the other will be statically
Question:
A truss that is pinned at one end and on rollers at the other will be statically determinate if it satisfies the following equation:
0 = 2j - m - 3
where j is the number of joints and m is the number of members. This is a quick way to check for static determinacy without drawing the FBDs. Apply this equation to:
a. Verify that the trusses in Exercises 7 through 12 are statically determinate.
b. Sketch three statically determinate truss bridges with the following numbers of members: (1) 11 members, (2) 15 members, and (3) 19 members.

As a Business Management graduate from Moi University, I had the opportunity to work as a tutor for undergraduate students in the same field. This experience allowed me to apply the theoretical knowledge I had gained in a practical setting, while also honing my teaching and communication skills.
As a tutor, I was responsible for conducting tutorial sessions, grading assignments and exams, and providing feedback and support to my students. I also assisted with the preparation of course materials and collaborated with other tutors and professors to ensure consistency in teaching and assessment.
