A plane truss is shown in figure. All the members of the planar truss have the same properties in terms of area of cross-section (A) and modulus of elasticity (E). The maximum axial force that any member can support is 8 kN in tension and 6 kN in compression. The maximum force P that can be supported at joint D would be 60⁰ m -4m- 60% 4 m- 60% _kN.

A planar truss is statically determinate if the number of joints j and the number of members m satisfy the relation 2j = m+r where r is the number of reaction forces. Assume r = 3, because truss is hinged at one end and on roller at other. Show that the planar truss which adequately models thebridge of Figure 3.1 is statically determinate. The analysis of a statically determinate truss is relatively straightforward entailing only a balance of forces at each joint.
