Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
For a given truss with specific loads and support reactions, demonstrate how to apply the Method of Sections step by step to find all member forces.
💡 Hint: Make sure to display your calculations to support your reasoning.
Question 2
You have calculated forces in a truss member, but the initial guess shows compression. Confirm your calculation follows the correct assumption.
💡 Hint: If calculations don’t match initial assumptions, what could have gone wrong?
