Part 1: Part 2:

Determine all reac ons of the following simple Determine reac on in internal pin B and solve for shear
structures 1-5. stress in the bolt if it has a diameter of 5inches.

If the cross-sec onal area of all members in the truss

shown is 0.09m2, solve for normal stress in members 23,
36, and 56.

P= 20kN
H= 10kN
b= 3m

Answer key:
Part 1:
1. RA=21.67lb upwards, RB=8.33lb upwards
2. NA= 0.506kN upwards to the right
RB = 1.49kN upwards to the right
Bx = 0.596kN to the right By = 1.37kN upwards
Ax = 0.173kN to the right Ay = 0.476kN upwards
3. MO = 7.56kNm clockwise
Ox = 1.50 kN to the right
Oy = 6.10 kN upwards
4. Ax = 300lb to the le , Ay = 140lb upwards
By = 260lb upwards
5. MA = 650kNm counterclockwise
Ax = 0
Ay = 220 kN upwards
Part 2:
1. Bx = 0, By = 234.78lb downwards
Shear stress = 11.96lb/in2
2. M36 = 11.37kN (T), normal stress= 126.31kN/m2
M56 = 13.92kN (T), normal stress= 154.70kN/m2
M23 = 11.96 (C), normal stress= 132.91kN/m 2
