Truss Calculation Reaction: Body Diagram

This document summarizes the truss reaction calculations for a frame structure. It shows the free body diagrams and calculations to determine the internal forces in each member. The key reaction forces are: - Ay = 0.25 kN - Hx = -3 kN - Hy = 3.75 kN It then calculates the internal forces in each member, determining that member Fce experiences 0.25 kN of tension (T) while member Fbd experiences 3.5 kN of compression (C).

(0.25) (5) Fce (5) = ) Fbd = -3.5 kN (C)

Therefore Fce acting as tension while Fbd acting as compression in members.
