MEMB$1023/$MEMB$1024/$MEMB Mini Project

Project Description:

Design the truss needed to support a walkway connecting two buildings as shown in Figure $1.$ Assume the truss is supported by a pin at A and a rocker at I. The walkway is intended for pedestrian use only, with vertical $5$ kN loads at $B,D,F$ and $H.$ For ease of fabrication, each truss member is to be constructed of one size $($diameter$)$ of welded steel pipe from the Table $1.$ The weights of the members are to be neglected. Design of truss must not be a Warren truss similar to Figure $1$

Submit a report on the complete force analysis and cost estimation along with the scaled drawing, identifying on your drawing the tensile and compressive force in each member.

Figure $1$ Walkway truss design.

Note: Design of the truss must not be

a Warren truss as shown in Figure $1$ Ineed the scale drwaing and force analysis using method of joints and using papers and pens and each value of each joints and tje cost too
