Plane Truss: Layout joint[dʒɒɪnt]节点 objective [əb'dʒektiv] n. 目的; section ['sekʃən] n. 截面; • Objective - Determination of Internal Forces • Definition/Properties • Internally Static Determinacy • The Method of Joints • The Method of Sections
Truss Structures: Roof roof [ru:f] n. 屋顶; Commonly Used Roof Trusses
Truss: Definition • Straight Members • Pin-jointed • Loaded at Joints Weights ignored • No-collapsible (rigid) collapsible [kə'læpsəbl] adj. 可折叠的;可变形的
Truss: Rigid or Collapsible • Basic Rigid Form (No-collapsible) • Collapsible Form (Mechanism) Simple Truss
Two-Force Member & Internal Force The Same Internal Force (T/C) at all sections
The Method of Joints Determine the internal forces in all three members.
The Method of Joints: Procedures • Check Static Determinacy: Externally & Internally • Determine the External Reactions (r=3) – FBD of the whole structure; Apply ΣFx=0; ΣFy=0; ΣM=0 • Choose a Start Joint –Only two unknowns/members at the joint; – Apply Σ Fx=0; Σ Fy=0 • Design a Joint Visit Order –Make sure no more than two unknowns need to be found when visiting a particular joint; – Apply Σ Fx=0; Σ Fy=0 • Check the Results by Employing Unused Joints or Equations, if Possible.
The Method of Joints: Example II • Determinate the force in each member of the loaded simple truss. triangle ['traiæŋɡl] n. 三角(形); All triangles are equilateral
I: Check Static Determinacy 1. r=3, so externally s.d. 2. m=7, j=5; m+r=2j; so internally s.d. II: Find External Reactions
The Method of Joints: Example III • Determinate the force in each member of the loaded simple truss.
The Method of Joints: Example IV • Determinate the force in each member of the loaded simple truss.
The Method of Joints: Example V • Compute the forces in members BC, BE and EF of the loaded truss.
Example VI • Compute the force in member DJ.
Advanced Issues • Externally Static Determinacy (Refer to Example IV) • Use of Two or More Moment Equations
Choose a Local Coordinate System coordinate [kəu'ɔ:dinit] n. 坐标; local ['ləukəl] n. 局部; adj. 当地的;局部的;
Advanced Issues: Example VII • Compute all member forces. All inclined members are at 300 or 600.
