SPEC ANALYSIS OF PERFECT FRAMES TYPES OF FRAMES ‘The simplest fiame is a triangle, which has three members and three joints (pin-jointed), Although there are many types of frames, which can be thought of, the frames may be grouped under two classes viz. Perfect frames + Imperfect frames PERFECT FRAMES: A perfect frame may be defined as that one which is made up of members just sufficient to keep the frame in equilibrium, when loaded, without any change in the shape. The simplest example of a perfect frame is a triangle. It is to be noted that the shape will not be distorted when the structure is loaded (Figure 12.1(a)). Thus, for three-jointed frame, there should be three members to prevent distortion, If it is needed to increase a joint to this triangular frame, ABC, two members AD and BD are to be added (Figure 12.1(b)). Thus, to keep a fiame as a perfect frame two additional members at one joint have to be added (Figure 12.1(¢)). Examples of perfect frames. A relationship for a perfect fiame can be obtained in terms of joints and members. Let n be the number of members and j be the number of joints. In Figure 12.2(a) let the three members AB, BC and AC and three joints A, B and C are removed. Now, we have (n~ 3) members and (j— 3) joints in the frame (Figure 12.2(b)). It can be noted that for (j ~ 3) joints, there are 2(j~ 3) members, i.e,, 3 joints and six members are remaining. LLY Requirement of number of members. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS-1 CESOSPC SPEC So for a stable frame the minimum number of members should be equal to two times the number of joints minimum three. IMPERFECT FRAM! Imperfect frame is one in which the number of members are more or less than (2j— 3). The imperfect frame may be further classified as © Deficient fiame Redundant frame. Let us consider a square frame, which has four members and four joints (Figure 12.3(2)). As per the relationship we should have (2 4)~3=5 members for the fame to be stable. As only four members are present it is not a stable frame. So, if'a frame has less number of members than that required by the relation n= (2j—3), then the frame is known as deficient frame Deficient and redundant frames. By adding one more member, E, the square frame satisfies the relation (i.e., 2 x 4 — 3 = 5) and hence forms a perieet frame, Redundant Frame If another additional diagonal member is added (Figure 12.3(c)) the frame remains stable. But it has more members than required, ie., 6 members instead of S members. Such a frame is called a redundant frame. ‘Thus, a redundant frame is an imperfect frame, in which the numbers of members are more than (2 ~ 3). Thus, it can be summarized that: Ifn= (2j~3) then the frame is a perfect frame Ifn< (2j~3) then the frame is a deficient frame Ifn> (2j~3) then the frame is a redundant frame. Perfect frames are stable, whereas deficient frames are unstable. Hence, perfect frames can be analyzed using equilibrium conditions, Redundant frames, although stable, cannot be fully analyzed by using equilibrium conditions Following are the assumptions made in finding the forces in the members of a frame. The frame is a perfect frame ‘The frame is loaded only at the joints All the members of the frame are pin-jointed Self-weight of the members is neglected. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS-I CESOSPC. SPEC © Forces in various members of a perfect frame may be found out either by analytical method or graphical method. Here, the discussion is confined to only analytical method. A perfect frame can be analytically analyzed by the following methods: * Method of joints or method of resolution * Method of sections or method of moments METHOD OF JOINTS OR METHOD OF RESOLUTION Fora given frame or a truss the support reactions are determined taking moments of the external forces with respect to the support. Then cach joint is considered individually asa free body in equilibrium and the forces on the members at that joint are determined by summing up all the vertical component of forces to zero and all the horizontal component of forces to zero. ie, EV=0 And ZH=0 Joints should be selected such that forces for only two members are unknown in that joint. ‘The force is said to be tensile if it pulls the joint to which it is connected. This method is explained in detail in the solved problems given below. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS-I CESOSPC.

SPEC METHOD OF SECTIONS OR METHOD OF MOMENTS When forces in a few members ofa truss are to be determined then this method is the most simple one. This method is easy since we do not need the solutions from other joints, Here, we pass a section line passing through the members in which the forces are to be determined. The section line should be such that it does not cut more than three members in which the forces are unknown. The truss on one side of the section line is treated as a free body in equilibrium under the action of external forces. The unknown forces are then determined using the equilibrium equations, SM = 0, ZFx = 0 and ZFy=0. When we get a negative value of force ina member then the assumed direction is not correct and it has to be reversed, PROBLEM: VIII PROBLEM: IX A truss of span 12 m is .
