556 Charen 14 Truss Anacrsis Usiva tHe Stirmuess Merion Determine the support reactions and the force in member 2 of the truss shown in Fig. =I, AE is comslant. SOLUTION Notation. The joints and members are numbered and the origin of the x,y axes is established at , Fig. 4-105. Also, arrows are wed to reference the near and far ends of each member. Using the code numbers, where the lowest numbers denote the unconstrained degrees of freedom, Fig. 1-105, we have eeu Structure Stiffness Motric, This matrix has been determined in Example 14-2 using the same notation as in Fig. 14=10b.
