INTRODUCTION
In this chapter we will study about pin connected structures designed to carry
loads. The analysis which we will learn forms the basis of further design of the
members of the structure. Here we make use of the equilibrium conditions
studied earlier and work out not only the unknown external support reaction,
but also internal axial forces acting in the members of the structure.
DEFINITION OF TRUSS
Truss is an engineering structure designed to support loads acting on it. It is
formed by thin slender members which are pin connected at the ends forming
a joint. The loads act only on the joints a not on the members. Thus the
specialty of a truss is that the members are designed to carry only axial forces
and not lateral forces.
APPLICATION OF TRUSS
A Roof truss is designed to carry the load of a roof at its top. For example the
roof over a railway platform is usually supported on a truss, or industrial
sheds have roof truss, even the roof of stadiums is usually supported on
truss. There are many other applications of roof truss.
A bridge truss is designed to support the floor of a bridge. Usually railway
bridges are steel fabricated truss. Electrical Transmission Towers are steel
trusses in vertical position. They carry the load and tension of the heavy
electrical cables supported on them.

ANALYSIS OF TRUSS
Truss analysis involves calculation of the support reactions and then finding
the axial forces in various members of the truss. The nature of axial forces i.e.
tensile or compressive is also found out. After the analysis of truss, the design
of members is carried out which involves deciding the best suited cross -
section of the member and the corresponding cross-sectional area required.
Before we study the various methods of truss analysis, let us discuss the
assumptions on which the analysis would be based.
1. All the members of the truss lie in one plane forming what known as a
plane truss. Various plane trusses joined together form a space Truss.
2. All the loads acting on the truss lie in the plane of the truss.
3. The members of the truss are joined at the ends by internal hinges known
as pins.
4. Loads act only at the joints and not directly on the members.
5. Each member is a two force body thereby resulting in axial forces which are
either tensile or compressive.
6. The self-weight of the members being small as compared to the loads, is
neglected.
7. The truss is statically determinate i.e. forces can be determined using
equilibrium conditions.
There are two methods of analyzing truss analytically.
1) Method of Joints
2) Method of Sections

METHOD OF JOINTS
This method involves applying COE to individual joints after isolating them
from the parent truss. This method is based on the principle "If the truss is
in equilibrium, an isolated joint of the truss will also be in equilibrium". The
following steps are involved while analysing truss by method of joints.
case 1: Find the reactions at the supports of the truss by applying COE to the
entire truss.
case 2: Isolate a joint from the truss which has not more than two members
with unknown force.
case 3: Assume that the members carry tension force. Based on this
assumption show the arrows on the unknown member pointing away
from the joint.
case 4: The forces at the joint form a concurrent force system to which we can
apply two COE viz. 00
Xy
F and F to find the unknown force in the
members. If the value obtained is negative it implies that the
assumption was incorrect and the member carries compressive force
and not tensile force.
case 5: Mark the magnitude and nature of the force so obtained on the parent
truss and no isolate another joint having not more than two members
with unknown force. Follow Steps 2-5 as before and thus solve joint
after joint to find forces in al1 the members of the truss.
case 6: Tabulate the results indicating the member, its force magnitude and
the nature of the force.

SPECIAL CASES
There are certain special cases which if identified and used, lead to quicker
solution. These special cases are discussed below.
case 1: "If three members meet at a joint of which two
are collinear, and there I no load at the joint,
then the third member is a zero force member
and the collinear members have the same force
in magnitude and nature".
Fig. (a) Shows a joint J formed by three
members AJ, BJ and CJ. Member AJ is collinear with BJ and there is
no load at the joint, then by special Case 1 we have, 0
CJ AJ BJ
F and F F
Variant to which Case 1 can be applied Joint J shows
two members AJ and BJ and a load of 5 kN collinear
with BJ.
We can apply the special case 7, taking the 5 kN load
as a member having a force of 5 kN Compression.
Now the conditions of special Case 1 have been satisfied. We can
therefore say, 0 5 ( .)
AJ BJ
F and F kN comp
case 2: "If four members meet at a joint, forming two
pairs of collinear members, and there is no load
at the joint, then the collinear members have
the same force in magnitude and nature”.
Fig. (c) Shows a joint formed by four members
AJ, BJ, CJ and DJ. Member AJ is collinear with
BJ and member CJ is collinear with DJ. Also there is no load at joint
J. We can therefore say by special Case 2.

STATICALLY DETERMINATE AND STATICALLY INDETERMINATE TRUSS
Statically Determinate Truss
Truss in which we can find the forces in all the members of the truss by

A truss in which we cannot find the forces in all the members of the truss
using conditions of equilibrium is known as a Statically Indeterminate
truss. They are also referred to as Imperfect truss and do not satisfy the

METHOD OF SECTIONS
In this method the entire truss is cut and separated into two parts. After
separation all the three COE are applied to any one part of the truss and
thus force in the members is found out. This method is based on the
principle, "If the truss is in equilibrium, an isolated part of the truss will
also be in equilibrium".
Method of Sections offers immediate solution to any member desired, unlike
method of joints where we have to solve various joints one by one to get to
the desired member. However method of secti ons is preferred for few
members analysis , while method of joints is suited when the whole truss is
to be analysed.
The following steps are to be adopted while solving the truss by method of
sections.
step 1: Tick mark the members which have to be analysed.
step 2: Cut the truss into two distinct separate parts by taking a cutting
section passing through the tick marked members (not necessary
through all the tick marked members) such that not more than three
unknown members are cut.
step 3: Select any one of the two parts taking care that at least two joints are
present in the selected part. lsolate the selected part from the rest of
the truss.
step 4: In the selected part of truss assume that the unknown members carry
tensile force. Now apply all the three COE viz. 0, 0 0
xy
and MFF
and solve to get forces in the desired
members. Moments are usually taken about a point where two
unknown forces meet to find the third force.
step 5: If the value obtained is negative it would imply that the assumption is
incorrect and the member has compressive nature of the force.
step 6: More than one cutting section may be required to be taken for finding
the forces in the desired members.

Figure shows a truss wherein we are required to find forces in members
CE, EF and BF.
Members CE, EF and BF are tick marked.
A cutting section (1)-(1) is taken and the truss is cut into two parts.
Note that not more than three unknown members are cut.
The R.H.S of the truss is isolated and all the three COE may now be
applied to it. Note that there are two joints in the selected right part
(requirement is of at least two joints).

Preferably moments may be taken about E since unknown FCE and FEF
meet at E. This will give us the force FBF.
Next, moments may be taken about B and Fop can be found out (since
unknown FCE passes through B).
