1· Δ = Σπα ΔΤ L
Where
1 = external virtual unit load acting on a truss joint in the stated direction of displacement A.
n = internal virtual normal force in a truss member caused by the external virtual unit load.
A = external joint displacement caused by the temperature change.
a = coefficient of thermal expansion of member.
AT = change in temperature of member
L = length of member.
Method of Virtual Work-Truss (due to Fabrication Errors and Camber)
1· Δ = Ση ΔΕ
Where:
1 = external virtual unit load acting on a truss joint in the stated direction of displacement A.
A = external joint displacement caused by fabrication error.
n = internal virtual normal force in a truss member caused by the external virtual unit load.
AL = difference in length of the member from its intended size as caused by a fabrication error.
