The queen-post trussed beam is used to support a uniform load of 4 k/ft. Determine the force developed in each of the five struts. Neglect the thickness of the beam and assume the truss members are pin connected to the beam. Also, neglect the effect of axial compression and shear in the beam. The cross-sectional area of each strut is 3 in2, and the moment of inertia for the beam is I = 600 in4. Also, E = 29(103) ksi.
A -4 ft- B 4 k/ft 10 ft- Prob. 9-36 D E -4 ft- F 3 ft
