in Table 16.2.

Substituting in Eqs (i) and (ii) and multiplying through by AE we have

(iii)
48 . 11
+
2 . 7 X 1 +
11 . 62 R 2 =

(iv)
Solving Eqs (iii) and (iv) we obtain
X 1 =
4 . 28 kN R 2 =
3 . 15 kN
The actual forces, F a, j , in the members of the complete truss are now calculated by
the method of joints and are listed in the final column of Table 16.2.
