CO 4: Solve trusses, frames for finding member forces and apply principles of equilibrium to forces in
space

Q. Question Marks Bloom’s

No. Level
1 Solve the truss to get forces in the members BC, FC and FE of the 4 3
truss shown in Fig. Calculate the reactions at the supports A and D.

2 Determine the forces in the various members of truss loaded as 4 3

shown in Fig.

3 1. A cable ABCD is supported at A and D, 12.6 m apart horizontally. 4 3

The cable carries loads of 675 N and 225 N at B and C as shown in
Fig. If cable also carries a force P acting horizontally at B,
determine its value for equilibrium.

4 Determine the reactions at B and C for the frame loaded and 4 3

supported as shown in Fig.
5 Determine the force in each member of the truss as shown in figure 4 3
and tabulate the result with magnitude and nature of force in the
members.
