Equilibrium StructuresEquilibrium Structures
Members are interconnected parts in structures.
Structures are any connecting system of members that is built to support or transfer forces and safely withstand the applied loads.
We will study statically determinate We will study statically determinate Frames & Machines Trusses

Frames and MachinesF&M
Frames and Machines Consider structures of
interconnected members that do not satisfy the definition of a truss.
Frames remain stationary and support l dloads.
Machines are designedMachines are designed to move and apply loads.

Frames & Machines Procedures
F&M
Frames & Machines Procedures
Analyze the entire structure and find as many reaction forces at the supports as you canforces at the supports as you can.
Analyze individual members Disassemble structure and isolate members Identify two-force members
Identify important joints which connect three or more Identify important joints which connect three or more members/supports
Apply action/reaction forces on any two contacting members
Reassemble members to check for errors. All internal and action/reaction forces must cancel out.

Truss Definition
Truss
Truss Definition
A framework composed of bars joined at their ends bybars joined at their ends by smooth pins to form a rigid structure.
Trusses are supported and loaded at their joints.
If we neglect the weights of the bars each bar is a two-force
River Kwai Bridgebars, each bar is a two-force member.

Space Trusses
Members are connected by joints that do not resist moments.
The basic element is a tetrahedron. Rigid simple space trusses can be built by Rigid simple space trusses can be built by
adding units of three end-connected bars. Analyze in the same way as 2D trusses.

Example Space Trusses 1 #1
A space truss is placed on a smooth floor. Joint A is supported ppby the corner where the smooth walls meet, and joint C rests against the smooth back wall.against the smooth back wall. Determine axial forces in member AC.

Trusses Tips & HintsTruss

Members All member are of two-force member types. Look for zero-force members to simplify problems
Internal forces Use tension as +ve and compression as −ve
Visualize the ‘flow’ of forces/loads through the trusses Visualize the ‘flow’ of forces/loads through the trusses Check the results

SummarySummary Frame: A structure which is designed to remain stationary
and support loadsand support loads. Machine: A structure which is designed to move and exert
loads. Truss: A structure which is comprised entirely of two-force
members.
Tension: axial forces at the ends are directed away from each othereach other.
Compression: axial forces at the ends are directed toward each other

ConceptsReview
Concepts Structures are systems of interconnecting rigid bodies and
fastening (pins joints etc ) Structured can be analyzes byfastening (pins, joints, etc.). Structured can be analyzes by disassembling the system into inter-related FBDs and considering the equilibrium of individual members.
Frames and machines are structures that are not trusses. Frames stay stationary while machines can move.
Trusses are structures which comprise of only Trusses are structures which comprise of only interconnecting 2-force members.
