Problem 1: (a) Simple- the distributed to the concentrated force measured from A.
(b) Determine the reaction at fixed support A.
Problem 2: (a) Determine the zero force members in the simple truss.
(b) Determine the forces in members CD. DH and HI using method of section and state whether CD, DH and HI are in tension or compression
Problem 3: Determine the force in each of the force members and state whether the forces is in tension or compression using the method of joint.
Problem 4: The Pipe assembly supports muttons the vertical load shown below. Determine the reaction of support at ball-and-socket joint A and the tensions in cable BC and BD.
