Frame and its types
Define deficient frame? I assume, n = number of members, j= number of joints. If the number of members are less than the required number of members (n < 2j-3) then the corresponding frame is called as deficient frame. Define redundant frame? I assume, n = number of members, j= number of joints. If the number of members are less than the required number of members (n > 2j-3) then the corresponding frame is called as deficient frame. Define Plane truss and Space truss? Give some examples. A Plane truss is a two dimension truss structure composed of number of bars hinged together to form a rigid framework, all the members are lie in one plane. Eg: Roof truss in industries A space truss is a three dimension truss structure composed of number of bars hinged together to form a rigid framework, the members are lie in different plane. Eg: Transmission line towers, crane parts. What are the assumptions made in the analysis of a t...
