“ ” PLANE TRUSSES CHEN JILE A truss is a structure that is made of straight, slender bars that are joined together to form a pattern of triangles. plane trusses Structure of truss in engineering Three assumptions 1. the weights of the members are negligible 2 . all joints are pin 3 . the applied forces act at joints. According to three assumptions, we can get conclusion : each member of a truss is a two-force body Calculation of the forces in the members of a truss: 1. Method of joint 2 .Method of section ExampleKnowing h, a and P,
