. Member forces n redundant trusses due to temperature changes In the event of temperature changes the standard canoncal equaton for redundant structure of frst degree s: δ X, t+δ =. t Δ t s the relatve movement of the ponts of applcaton of X n the prmary system caused by the temperature changes. Snce bendng moments of all truss members are zero the temperature gradent, Δ h, does not affect on Δ. The unform temperature t c leads to the extenson or t / t flexon of the heated bars. In that respect the dsplacement Δ t may be obtaned usng the followng expresson: l Δ = α t N dx= α t N, l. t c c In our case the coeffcent of temperature expanson s α=. -4, t c =3. All the necessary calculatons concernng temperature changes are also gven n table. The relatve axal movement of the ponts of applcaton of X caused by the temperature changes Δ t s derved by the summaton of all the values of column. The canoncal equaton wth the obtaned values of X,t s gven below the table. The fnal nternal normal force of any member, nduced by temperature changes can be obtaned from: N = N X. t,,, t These member forces are obtaned n column 3 of the table. Compatblty verfcaton The prncple of geometrcal compatblty postulates that the dsplacement of any pont of a structure due to a system of appled forces must be compatble wth the deformatons of the ndvdual members. In that respect the relatve movement of ponts of applcaton of X must be zero, because a constrant between these ponts s avalable n the real redundant structure. Ths requrement for the case of appled external loads could be wrtten as: N Nf N, Nf, l Δ = ds = =. Δ The magntude of dsplacement can be obtaned by the summaton of all the values of column n table. In order to estmate the numercal error due to rounds n numbers we should sum up all the negatve values and all the postve values separately. In ths case, takng fve sgnfcant dgts, we wll obtan: Δ = 6.6735 6.6735.

Influence lnes for member forces n statcally ndetermnate trusses I. Basc concepts The nternal normal force, N f,, n any bar of the presented truss (g. ) could be obtaned by the followng equaton: " N " = " N " + N " X ". f, f,, In ths equaton N f, s the normal force n the -th member of the prmary statcally determnate system caused by the appled loads. or nfluence lnes constructon the appled load s a unt force traversng the road. N, s the normal force of -th member of the smple truss caused by the acton X = replacng the elmnated constrant. The normal force N f, depends on the poston of the unt load. The correspondng nfluence lne for ths member of the prmary system could be easly obtaned. The force X ntroduced to replace the elmnated constrant depends on the poston of the unt load. The standard canoncal equaton, showng that the dsplacement along the lne of acton of the redundant constrant X (g. ) s zero, takes the form: δ X +Δ f =, so, we get: " Δ f " " X " =. δ The varaton of Δ f when the load unty travels along the upper chord of the truss wll concde wth the deflecton curve of the same chord of the prmary structure subjected to the acton of X =.

In order to obtan the nfluence lne for the dsplacement Δ f, we should construct the elastc curve of the upper chord. or that purpose a horzontal conjugate beam must be formed. Ths beam should be loaded wth concentrated tous loads correspondng to the mutual dsplacements (rotatons and vertcal deflectons) arsng between two bars of the road. Concentrated tous forces must be appled to the magnary conjugate beam at ponts correspondng to jonts,,, 3, 4, 5 and 6 (g. 5), because a mutual rotaton s possble between each two bars connected at these ponts. Concentrated tous moment should be appled at ponts correspondng to jonts and 6, because a mutual vertcal dsplacement arses between connected members at these ponts and the ground (g. 5). The conjugate beam could be supported as a smple beam (g. 5). In ths case the unknown concentrated forces and 6 wll be calculated as support reactons. S.

Let us proceed wth the determnaton of elastc concentrated force. Ths tous load represents the angular rotaton of bar O wth reference to bar O. In order to fnd the magntude of ths load we should apply two vrtual moments, n the drecton of mutual rotaton, to bars O and O. These moments must be replaced by equvalent unt couples of forces = appled at λ 4 the truss jonts (g. 6a). Next, we should compute the normal forces nduced n the truss bars by these couples. It s readly seen that all the bars except bars O, O, V, D, and D wll reman dle. Member forces n the loaded bars are depcted n g. 6a. The tous concentrated force s: N, N, l =. In ths equaton N, s the normal force of the -th member of the smple truss nduced by the vrtual moments M =, X =.
