Q Bank of Engineering Mechanics

The document provides instructions for analyzing truss structures to determine member forces and identify zero-force members. Most instructions involve calculating member forces and specifying whether each member experiences tension or compression. Some also require identifying zero-force members or determining forces, tensions/compressions at specific joint locations. The analyses require using methods like method of joints while assuming pin-connected joints.
