In this article, related to the calculation of internal forces, we will deal with the determination of axial forces in truss members. The main topic of this entry is Ritter’s method. In this article, we will cover the following subjects: Internal forces in planar...
In this article, related to the calculation of internal forces, we will deal with the determination of axial forces in truss members. The main topic of this entry is the nodes equilibrium method. In this article, we will cover the following subjects: Internal forces...
In the next article related to the basics of statics, we will deal with truss calculations. The main topics of this entry will be the kinematic analysis and the calculation of support reactions in trusses. In this article, we will cover the following subjects: What...
In today’s post, we are excited to share our latest educational tool – the EquiTruss application – designed to help students learn truss calculations! Just like EquiBeam, EquiTruss enables fully analytical calculations for all types of truss structures (not just...
In this article, I will present the calculations of the parameters of a composite cross-section. In the example, we will determine the positions of the centroids of simple shapes. Knowledge of these will be necessary for calculating the moments of inertia using...
The moments of inertia of flat figures (cross-sections) are key parameters in structural strength analysis, particularly when analyzing the bending of beams. In this article, we will focus on practical examples of calculating moments of inertia for various types of...
