This document analyzes a framed truss structure with over 50 steel members using the finite element software SAP 2000. The author models a five-panel truss with hinge supports and various steel sections. Axial forces, displacements, and stresses are obtained from dead, live, and wind loads. Manual calculations validate some results from SAP 2000. A parametric study examines changing a support to roller and reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion, finding different member forces and displacements in each case. The author concludes FEM software is useful but has errors, and boundary conditions and other factors significantly impact structural behavior and load transfer.
