  1. TRUSSES SAMPLE QUESTIONS

  2. 4 m 4 m 4 m E D 4 m r=400 mm H G C F 4 m B 16 kN 4 m A 1. The crane in the figure consists of a planar truss. Determine the forces in members DE, DG and HG when the crane supports a 16 kN load, indicate whether the members work in tension (T) or compression (C).

  3. 2. Determine the forces in members BC and FG.

  4. FCJ FFJ Cut FG FBC

  5. 3. Determine the forces in members CD, CJ and DJ, state whether they work in tension (T) or compression (C).

  8. 4. The truss shown consists of 45° triangles. The cross members in the two center panels that do not touch each other are slender bars which are incapable of carrying compressive loads. Identify the two tension members in these panels and determine the forces they support. Also determine the force in member MN.
