- Analysis of Structures; Analysis of Trusses (Example 1)
In this video, we determine the force in each member of a Gambrel roof truss using the method of joints. The question was selected from Chapter 6 (Analysis of Structures) of "Vector Mechanics for Engineers: Statics and Dynamics (11th edition)" by Beer & Johnston.
