    This document is a structural analysis assignment submitted by Molebogeng Mathibedi. It analyzes three truss designs (a, b, c) to determine the one with the smallest cross-sectional area. The analysis found that design c, with 16 members and a cross-sectional area of 6860mm2, required the smallest area to support the loads on the truss. References included Structural Analysis 4th Edition by Aslam Kassimali.
