Question

a)Enumerate all zero force member/s.
b) Calculate the internal forces of all members in kN.
c) Tabulate your propose W14 section for each member showing the internal load, available strength
and its corresponding DCR value.

Design all members in the truss shown below using only W14 steel sections considering the factored loads
P₁ = 850kN. Assume k = 0.9 and use LRFD and A36. Ignore weights of truss members. The truss was
supported by a pin support at the left and a rocker support at the right. Maintain a DCR value of 0.80 to
0.90 and use the most economical section. Apply design of tension and compression members. Ignore
rupture and block shear failure for tension members. Use compact section only.
