No. 1, Douglas Fir-Larch

THE TRUSS DESIGN IS ADEQUATE.

ANALYSIS
DESIGN CRITERIA
1. The intermediate finite element analysis include shear deformations using G equal to 0.5 E / (1+0.3).
2. There are different rotations at same joint of web to chord, since web pinned to continued chord.
3. The top chord factors, CP & CL , are based on two joints length. Other member factors, including CV, are based on their physical length.
