Analysis of Plane Trusses

The members of a truss are connected to each other at their ends by

• Roller Joint

• Pin Joint

• Fixed Joint

An electric transmission tower is an example of

• 2D Truss

• 3D Truss

Each member of truss is engineered to carry load in

• Tension Only

• Compression Only

• Both Tension and Compression

• Flexure

For a truss to be redundant the condition should be

• M = 2J - R

• M < 2J - R

• M > 2J - R

Which among the following statements is true?

• A deficient truss is indeterminate and unstable

• A deficient truss is determinate and stable

• A deficient truss is indeterminate and stable

• A deficient truss is determinate but unstable

While analyzing a truss, which of the following assumption is true?

• Trusses can be imperfect

• All members are pin-jointed

• Weight of the truss can be neglected

• Load is distributed on the members
