CHAPTER 1 Trusses and Arches

Trusses Classification of trusses Trusses

Plane Trusses (2D)

Determinate trusses ( )

Where

Space Trusses (3D)

Indeterminate trusses ( > 0)

- Degree of static indeterminacy

Assumption involved in analysis of trusses 1. 2. 3. 4.

All the joints are pin connected and free from friction. Members will be subjected to only axial forces Self wt of members is negligible The loading is such that force in the member are within elastic limit.

Procedure Of Analysis 1. Find degree of static indeterminacy using m = No. of members r = No. of external reasons j = No. of joints if = 0, Truss is determinate and stable.

= m + r – 2j

Determinate truss can be analyzed by methods a) Method of joints b) Method of sections c) Graphical method or Williot Mohr diagram 2.

If > 0, then truss is indeterminate. In terminate truss can be analyzed by methods a) Unit load method b) Maxwell’s method THE GATE ACADEMY PVT.LTD.

Structural Analysis

c) Graphical method Analysis of Determinate Trusses. Methods of joints 1. Every joints there are two equation of equilibrium i.e. ∑ and ∑ = 0, This method is not applicable for numbers of unknowns at any point are more than 2 2. In order to find internal reactions, following equations equilibrium may be used ∑ ,∑ , ∑M = 0 3. Not more than three equilibrium in general cannot be obtained until and unless additional equations of equilibrium are provided. 4. After finding the external equations, apply joint equilibrium at each joint one by one 5. Tensile force are assumed to be (+) and compressive force are assumed to be (-). Notes 1. If truss is externally indeterminate by degree 1 but internally, determinate by -1, then = 0. In such case in order to find external reactions, there must be conditions such that a part of truss may be rotated about a practical joint. Example C

A

= m + r -2j = x = 4-3 = 1 = -1 No. of equilibrium conditions

B

=0 3 condition obtained through rotation at C i.e. ∑ M = 0

2. If at a joint three members meet and two of them are collinear and there is no external force at that joint, then the third members carries zero force always. 3. If at a joint only two members meet and there is no external force at that joint and if members are not collinearly then both member will carry zero forces.

Arches Arches are a structure which eliminates tensile stresses in spanning great amount of open space. All the forces are resolved into compressive stresses.

Fixed arch

 A three hinged arch is a statically determinate structure whre the rest three aches are statically indeterminate  In bridge construction, especially is railroad bridges, the more frequently used aches the two hinged and the fixed end ones. Three Hinged Arches  A three hinged arch is a statically determinate structure, having a hinged at each abutment or springing, and also at the crown.  In three hinged arch three equations are available from static equilibrium and one additional equation is available from the fact that B.M at the hinge at the crown is zero. Standard cases Case1: A three hinged parabolic arch of span L rise ‘h’ carries a udl of w over the whole span W unit per run

h H

L (a) The horizontal reaction at each support is H = (b) The net bending moment and shear force at any section on the parabolic three hinged arch is zero M = Beam moment – H moment = 0 Case2: A three hinged semicircular arch of radius ‘R’ carries a udl of w even the whole span.
