Trusses
Zero Force members:
1) If only two members meet
at an unloaded joint, both
are zero force members.
2) If 3 members meet at an
unloaded joint of which two
are in a direct line with one
another, then the third is a
zero-force member.
3) If two members meet at a
loaded joint and the line of
action of the load coincides
with one of the members,
the other is a zero force
member.
