1. Copy the TrussForces code for the MATLAB file in the MATLAB tutorial.
2. Add a comment line in the second line that includes your name. (no name, no grade)
3. Save your file in the format: Lastname_Firstname_TrussForces
4. Change the first line of your function so that the function name matches your file name.
MATLAB really likes it when you do this!
5. Run the code to verify that it works.
6. Verify your solution by doing a hand calculation to determine the support reactions at pins E and
F.(This should be done by treating the truss as a rigid body and summing forces in the x and y
directions, and summing the moments around a point to allow you to find the reaction forces
without the need to perform a full analysis of the truss.)
To Submit:
a) A executable copy of your code (.m file format). Remember to include your name in a
comment line on line 2 of the code.
b) A copy of your hand calculations.
