Method of Sections

Problem 431
Determine the force in the members DF, DG, and EG for the Parker truss shown in Fig. P-430.
 

Problem 430
The loads on the Parker truss shown in Fig. P-430, determine the forces in members BD, BE, CE, and DE.
 

Problem 429
For the cantilever truss shown in Fig. P-429, determine the forces in members DF, FH, FI, GI, and FG.
 

Problem 428
Use the method of sections to determine the force in members DF, FG, and GI of the triangular Howe truss shown in Fig. P-428.
 

Problem 427
Determine the force in bars BD, CD, and DE of the nacelle truss shown in Fig. P-427.
 

Problem 426
Using the method of sections, compute the force in bars FH, GH, and EK.
 

Problem 425
In the Fink truss shown in Fig. P-425, the web members BC and EF are perpendicular to the inclined members at their midpoints. Use the method of sections to determine the force in members DF, DE, and CE.
 

Problem 424
For the truss shown in Fig. P-424, determine the force in BF by the method of joints and then check this result using the method of sections. Hint: To apply the method of sections, first obtain the value of BE by inspection.
 

Problem 423
Use the method of sections to determine the force acting in members DF, EF, and EG of the Howe truss described in Problem 409.
 

Problem 421
Use the method of sections to compute for the force in members DF, EF, and EG of the cantilever truss described in Problem 411 and Fig. P-411.
