Assume that each member of the truss is made of steel having a mass per length of 4
Chapter 6, Problem 65(choose chapter or problem)
Assume that each member of the truss is made of steel having a mass per length of 4 kg/m. Set P = 0, determine the force in each member, and indicate if the members are in tension or compression. Neglect the weight of the gusset plates and assume each joint is a pin. Solve the problem by assuming the weight of each member can be represented as a vertical force, half of which is applied at the end of each member.
