Problem 6-5Determine the force in each member of the truss and state if the members are in tension orcompression.

Problem 6-15Determine the force in each member of the truss and state if the members are in tension orcompression.

Problem 6-17

The maximum allowable tensile force in the members of the truss is Tmax and the maximumallowable compressive force is Cmax. Determine the maximum magnitude of the load P that canbe applied to the truss.

Problem 6-25Determine the force in each member of the truss and state if the members are in tension orcompression. Hint: The vertical component of force at C must equal zero. Why?

Problem 6-32The Pratt bridge truss is subjected to the loading shown. Determine the force in members JI,JE, and DE, and state if the members are in tension or compression.

Problem 6-37Determine the force in members BF, BG, and AB, and state if the members are in tension orcompression.

Problem 6-45Determine the force in member GJ of the truss and state if this member is in tension orcompression.

Problem 6-48Determine the force in members BG, HG, and BC of the truss and state if the members are intension or compression.
