Question 4

The truss PQR is as shown in fig.



Find the magnitude and nature of the force in member PQ in kN if it is carrying a load of 10kN at P.

Question 5

The force in member BC of steel truss structure shown in figure below is (Cross section of each member is A, Length of each member is ‘l’)
