    This document is an assignment from the Department of Civil Engineering at the Papua New Guinea University of Technology. It contains two questions asking students to analyze pin-jointed frames using different structural analysis methods. Question 1 asks students to use the method of joints and sections to determine member forces in two frames under given loads. Question 2 asks students to use the method of tension coefficients to find member forces in a space frame pinned to a wall under a vertical and angled load. Students are advised to follow analysis procedures carefully to receive full marks. The assignment is due on March 22nd, 2024.

    ASSIGNMENT # 1

    Given Date: Monday 11th March, 2024 Due Date: Friday 22nd March, 2024

    Total: 35 Marks

    Question 1 [Force Method of Analysis: Method of Joints] (20 Marks)

    Determine the forces in the members marked 1, 2, 3, and 4 in each of the pin-jointed frame
    shown below in Figure Q1 and Figure Q2 when it carries the loads shown. Use both the
    Method of Joints and Sections.

    Question 3 [Method of Tension Coefficient] (15 Marks)

    The pin-jointed space frame shown below in Figure Q3 is pinned to a supporting wall at the
    points C, D and E. It carries a vertical load of 10 kN at the point A, together with a load of 20
    kN acting in the horizontal plane at the angle shown. Using the method of tension
    coefficients, find the forces in all the members under this loading system.

    [Hint: Carefully follow all procedures of analysis to get full marks.]

    All the best!!
