(18 points) Difficulty (4/5)
Given the truss shown, loaded and dimensioned with the values given here:
[aF1F3b=6.6ftF2=2100vbF4=1100vbc=8.1ft??]=8.1ft=1100vb=2100vb=6.6ft=2060Nb=8.1ft=1100vb=2100vb=6.6ft=2060Nb=1000Jb=8.1ft=1100vb=2100vb=6.6ft=2060Nb=1000Jb=4.1ft
Find the following, assuming the truss does not deform out-of-plane:
(a) The reaction forces at the supports.
(b) The forces carried in each member.
(a)
Reactions:
(If the support applies an upward or rightward force on the stucture, enter a positive value, otherwise enter a negative value)
(b).(c), and (d)
Members:
(Denote tensile forces with positive velues and compressive forces with negative values. Enter NA for the diameters and changes in length of compressive and zero-force members.)
