    The document provides instructions for solving three examples of determining forces in truss members. The first example shows a truss under horizontal and vertical loads and asks to determine the forces in each member. The second example shows a truss under point loads and asks to determine the forces and indicate whether each member is in tension or compression. The third example shows a truss under a point load and asks to first find the reactions and then determine the forces in each member.
