7. 1. INTRODUCTION TO TRUSS
1.1) A truss is an articulated structure composed of straight members
arranged and connected in such a way that they transmit primarily axial
forces. If all the members lie in one plane it is called a plane truss. A three
dimensional truss is called a space truss.
2. TRUSS
2.1) Plane Truss: - The basic form of truss is a triangle formed by three
members joined together at their common ends forming three joints. Another
two member connected to two of the joints form a stable system of two
triangles.
a) I f whole structure is built up in this way it must be internally rigid. Such a
truss if supported suitably will be stable.
b) The truss has to be supported in general by three reaction components, all
of which neither parallel nor concurrent such a truss is called simple truss.
Various types of trusses are shown in Fig 1 a, b and c. These are stable and
statically determinate.

(2.2) SPACE TRUSS
The basic element of space truss which is just rigid is a tetrahedron with four
joints space truss is shown in figure 2.

9. (2.2.1) EQUILIBRIUM AND STABILITY EQUATION
The equilibrium of an entire space truss or Section of a space truss is
described by the sir scalar equation given below:-
∑Fx = 0 ∑Mx = 0
∑Fy = 0 ∑My = 0
∑Fz = 0 ∑Mz = 0
Or in vector from
Fr = 0 Mr = 0
Fr and Mr represent three – dimensional force and moment Vector.
3. Type of Truss:-
I) Perfect Truss
II) Imperfect Truss
- Deficient Truss
- Redundant Truss.
(3.1) Perfect Truss:-
A truss which has got just sufficient number of members to resist load without
undergoing appreciable deformation in shape is called Perfect Truss. The
number of members in a perfect truss may also be expressed by the relation:
m = 2j-3
Where,
m = number of members,
j = number of joints
Perfect truss is shown in fig (3) a and b.

10. (b)

FIG. 3
3.2) Imperfect truss: - It is a truss in which the no. of members is more or less
than (2j-3). The imperfect truss may be further classified into following two
types.
1. DEFICIENT TRUSS
2. REDUDANT TRUSS
Imperfect truss does not satisfy the equation m=2j-3
(3.3) Deficient Truss:-
A truss which has got less number of members than that required for a perfect
truss. Deficient truss is shown in fig (4)
Fig. (4)
(3.4) Redundant Truss: -
A truss which has got more number of members than that required for a
perfect frame or truss. A redundant truss is a statically indeterminate since the
forces in the member can not be determined using equation of equilibrium
alone.
Each extra member adds one degree of indeterminacy.
Redundant truss is shown in figure (5).
10
11. Fig (5)
4. Assumptions made in classical truss analysis.
Every member of truss is straight.
Each end of the member is connected to a joint by a frictionless pin on
the longitudinal centroidal axis of the member.
The self weighs of the members of a truss are taken to be negligible
compared with the applied loads.
All the load and reactions are applied or transmitted to the joints only.
11
12. The cross-section of the members is uniform i.e.; members are
prismatic.
5. TERMINOLOGY:
(5.1) Nature of forces in members.
The members of truss are subjected to either tensile or compressive forces. A
typical truss ABCDE loaded at joint E is shown in figure .6(a).
The member BC is subjected to compressive force C as shown in fig 6 (b).
Effect of this force on the joint B (or C) is equal and opposite to the force C as
shown in fig 6 (b).
The member AE is subjected to tensile force T. It effect on the Joint A and E
are as shown in fig. 6 (b).

13. E D
In the analysis of frame. We work forces on the joints, instead of the forces in
the member as shown in figure 1.6 (c). It may be noted that compressive force
in a member is represented in the in the figure by two arrows going away
from each other and a tensile force by two arrows coming towards each other.
(6).DETERMINATE, INDETERMINATE & UNSTABLE
TRUSS:-
(6.1) A structural system which can analyzed with the use of equation of
statical
Equilibrium only is called as statically determinate structure e.g. trusses with
both end simply supported, one end hinged and other rollers etc.
If m+r -2j =0 then truss is said to be statically determinate.

14. (6.2) A structure which can not be analyzed with the use of equation of
equilibrium only is called statically indeterminate structure.
If m+r-2j > 0 then truss is said to be statically in indeterminate.
Indeterminate structures are also called redundant structure.
(6.3) if m+r-2J<0 then truss is said to be unstable.
(6.4) Unknown reaction component at
a) Roller support ---1
b) Hinged support---2
c) Fixed support------3
7. Methods of Analysis:-
The following to analytical methods for finding out the forces in the members
of a perfect frame, are important from the subject point of view.
7.1 Method of Joints
7.2 Method of section

15. (a) Space diagram (b) Joint ’1’ (c) Joint
(2)
Fig. 7 (a, b, c)
In this method, each and every joint is treated as a free body in equilibrium as
shown in figure 7 (a), (b), (c) & (d). The unknown forces are then determined
by equilibrium equation viz; ∑v=0 and ∑h-=0.
i.e.; sum of all the vertical forces and horizontal forces is equated to zero.
Note:1.:-The member of the frame may be named either by Bow’s method or
by joints at their ends.
7.1.1. While selecting the joints, for calculation work, care should be taken that
at any instant. The joint should not contain more then two members in which
the forces are unknown.
7.2 Method of section (or Method of Moments)
This method is particularly convenient when the forces in a few members of a
truss are required to be found out. In this method the truss is cut into two
parts and equilibrium equations are written for one of the parts of truss
treating it as a free –body diagram for the purpose. The critical aspect of this
method is the choice of the proper free body diagram for the purpose.
The method of joints is effective if want to calculate forces in all
members of the truss but the method of section is obviously superior if we
seek forces only in certain members. In such case section can be made only
through the selected members, where as the method of joints would require
the analysis of joints from one end of the structure progressively up to
particular member.

22. PROCEDURE FOR ANALYSIS
Taking moment about A
MA = VB*a-HBtanθ+Vc*2a-HC*2a*tanθ+VD*3a-
HD*atanθ+VE*4a+VF*a+VG*2a+VH*3a+RE*4a=0
RE*4a=-(VB*a-HB*tanθ+VC*2a-HC*2ª*tanθ+VD*3a-
HD*atanθ+VE*4a+VF*a+VG*2a+VH*3a)
Cancelling a from both side we get,
RE=-(VB/4-HBtanθ/4*2Vc/4-2Hctanθ/4+3VD/4-HDtanθ/4+VE+VF/4+2VA/4+3VH/4)
RE=-(VB/4-HB/4tanθ+VC/2-HC/2tanθ+3/4VD-HD/4tanθ+VE+VF/4+VG/2+3VH/4)
RA=-(∑F-RE)
RA= -(VA+VB+VC+VD+VE+VF+VG+VH-VB/4-HBtanθ/4-VC/2-HCtanθ/2-3VD/4-
HDtanθ/4-VE-VF/4-VG/2-3VH/4)
RA= -(VA-3VB/4-HBtanθ-VC/2-HCtanθ/2-VD/4-HDtanθ-3VF/4-VG/2-VH/4)
CALCULATION OF FORCE IN MEMBERS
At joint (A)
∑Fy=0 gives
-(VA+RA)=PAB*Sinθ
PABsin30 = - (VA-VA+VB*0.75+HB*tanθ*0.25+0.5*VC+HC*tanθ*0.5+VD*0.25+HD*
tanθ
22
27. At joint (E)
ΣFy=0 gives;
PDEsin30 = - (RE+VE)
PDE= - (0.5VB-0.5HBtanθ+VC-HCtanθ+1.5VD-0.5HBtanθ+0.5VF+VG+1.5VH+HE)

9. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS
Truss system has been understood entirely with its various elements, types,
stability and analysis for an unknown set of forces.
Further, two types of truss system have been analytically analyzed for a set of
unknown forces manually. Also, STAAD Files have been generated for both
the Truss systems comprising modeling, loading, and analysis. The results
46
47. drawn from manual calculation and from STAAD.PRO have been found to be
in compliance.
Furthermore, Standard Excel Program Files have been developed for the two
Truss systems for a set of unknown forces and the results were in
concurrence with the results obtained from the analysis of STAAD.PRO.
