Q1
TRUSS
TRUSS
The two methods for analysis of plane trusses ,joint method and section
. The method of joints essentially remains the same, except that three equilibrium equations (PFx ¼
0,PFy ¼ 0, andPFz ¼ 0) must now be satisfied at each joint of the space truss. Since the three
equilibrium equations cannot be used to determine more than three unknown forces, the analysis is
started at a joint that has a maximum of three unknown forces (which must not be coplanar) acting
on it.
The three unknowns are determined by applying the three equations of equilibrium. We then
proceed from joint to joint, computing three or fewer unknown forces at each subsequent joint,
until all the desired forces have been determined.
METHOD of SECTION
IN this method when we require force in specfic member so we cut the member which is pass with
three member and then applying the eucation of equlibrium
DETERMINACY
A truss is considered to be statically determinate if all of its member forces and reactions can be
determined by using the equations of equilibrium. If a plane truss contains m members, j joints, and
is supported by r reactions,
DETERMINACY
A frame is considered to be statically determinate if the shears, bending moments, and axial
forces in all its members as well as all the external reactions can be determined by using the
equations of equilibrium and condition. If a plane frame contains m members and j joints, is
supported by r reactions, and has ec equations of condition, then
if 3m+r < 3j +c the frame is statically unstable
3m+r = 3j+c the frame is statically determinate 3m+r > 3j+c the frame is statically
indeterminate
The degree of static indeterminacy is given by i = (3m+r)-(3j+c)
ARCH
Arch depend on support condition
Three –HINGED arch Is statically Determinate STRUCTURE and Its reaction /internal force are Evaluated by
static Equcation of equilibrium . Two HiNGED arch and FIXED arch are inderterminate .
Fixed arches restrict the horizontal, vertical or rotational movement at its two ends, so a fixed
arch is an indeterminate structure.
As they have total of 6 supporting reactions, 3 at each end, they are indeterminate to a
degree of 3. This can be numerically justified as below:
So Indeterminacy,
E = R-r = 6-3 = 3
So, as to analyze a fixed arch we need a minimum of three extra equations.
In the case of two-hinged arch, we have four unknown reactions, but there are only three
equations of equilibrium available. Hence, the degree of statically indeterminacy is one for
two hinged arch.
Three Hinge Arches:-
In the case of three-hinged arch, we have three hinges: two at the support and one at the
crown thus making it statically determinate structure.
Analysis of arches :-
We can analysis arches according to there geometry.there are two type of arches according
to their geometry.
1) Parabolic Arches
2) Circular Arches
Parabolic Arches:-
If a three hinged arch is parabolic in shape and it carries uniformly distributed load
over the entire span, every section of the arch will be purely in compression resisting
only a normal thrust. There will be no shear force and no bending moment. However
for other types of loading axial thrust, shear force and bending moment exist.
