2.
3.
4.
All the joints are pin connected and free from friction.
Members will be subjected to only axial forces
Self wt of members is negligible
The loading is such that force in the member are within elastic limit.
Procedure Of Analysis
1. Find degree of static indeterminacy using
m = No. of members
r = No. of external reasons
j = No. of joints
if = 0, Truss is determinate and stable.
= m + r 2j
Determinate truss can be analyzed by methods

a) Method of joints
b) Method of sections
c) Graphical method or Williot Mohr diagram
2.
If
> 0, then truss is indeterminate.
In terminate truss can be analyzed by methods
a) Unit load method
b) Maxwells method

c) Graphical method
Analysis of Determinate Trusses.
Methods of joints
1. Every joints there are two equation of equilibrium i.e.
and = 0,
This method is not applicable for numbers of unknowns at any point are more than 2
2. In order to find internal reactions, following equations equilibrium may be used
,
, M = 0
3. Not more than three equilibrium in general cannot be obtained until and unless additional
equations of equilibrium are provided.
4. After finding the external equations, apply joint equilibrium at each joint one by one
5. Tensile force are assumed to be (+) and compressive force are assumed to be (-).
Notes
1. If truss is externally indeterminate by degree 1 but internally, determinate by -1, then = 0.
In such case in order to find external reactions, there must be conditions such that a part of
truss may be rotated about a practical joint.
Example
C
= m + r -2j =
x
= 4-3 = 1
= -1
No. of equilibrium conditions
=0
3 condition obtained through rotation at C i.e. M = 0
2. If at a joint three members meet and two of them are collinear and there is no external force
at that joint, then the third members carries zero force always.
3. If at a joint only two members meet and there is no external force at that joint and if
members are not collinearly then both member will carry zero forces.
Arches
Arches are a structure which eliminates tensile stresses in spanning great amount of open space.
All the forces are resolved into compressive stresses.

Fixed arch
A three hinged arch is a statically determinate structure whre the rest three aches are
statically indeterminate
In bridge construction, especially is railroad bridges, the more frequently used aches the
two hinged and the fixed end ones.
Three Hinged Arches
A three hinged arch is a statically determinate structure, having a hinged at each
abutment or springing, and also at the crown.
In three hinged arch three equations are available from static equilibrium and one
additional equation is available from the fact that B.M at the hinge at the crown is zero.
Standard cases
Case1: A three hinged parabolic arch of span L rise h carries a udl of w over the whole span
W unit per run

L
(a) The horizontal reaction at each support is H =
(b) The net bending moment and shear force at any section on the parabolic three hinged
arch is zero
M = Beam moment H moment = 0
Case2: A three hinged semicircular arch of radius R carries a udl of w even the whole span.

(b) The maximum bending moment for the arch is Mmax =

the crown is,

Case3: A three hinged arch consisting of two quadrant parts AC and CB of radii R and R . The
arch carries a concentrated load of W on the crown

Hinged Arches:
Two hinged arch is an indeterminate structure. and
can be determined by taking moment
about either end. The horizontal thrust at each support may be determined from the condition
that the horizontal displacement of the either hinge with respect to other is zero
