QUESTION 4: (25 marks)
4.1. The supports of the followed truss beam are pin-pin. Check if it is isostatic
system or hyperstatic system or mechanism. (10 marks)
4.2. Pre-estimate the type of stress for each rod of the truss beam (compression or
tension or zero), without calculations but giving enough explanation about the
methodology you will use for that. (15 marks) QUESTION 3: (25 marks)
A beam with length L=5.0m is supported by two pins at the top of two columns with
height of each column 4.0m. Each column has Elc=200KNm2. The distributed load
at the beam is q=6KNm.
3.1. Check the columns if they can resist to the buckling or not 10 marks)
3.2. Estimate the stiffiness of each column (Kc) and the stiffness of the frame (K)110
marks)
3.3. For horizontal lateral load 5KN, estimate the lateral displacement of the frame.
