What is Mechanics? Mechanics is the physical science which deals with the effects of forces on objects. The subject of mechanics is logically divided into two parts: statics,which concerns the equilibrium of bodies under action of forces, and dynamics, which concerns the motion of bodies. BASIC CONCEPTS The following concepts and definitions are basic to the study of mechanics, and they should be understood at the outset. Space is the geometric region occupied by bodies whose positions are described by linear and angular measurements relative to a coordinate system. For three-dimensional problems, three independent coordinates are needed. For two-dimensional problems, only two coordinates are required. Time is the measure of the succession of events and is a basic quantity in dynamics. Time is not directly involved in the analysis of statics problems. Mass is a measure of the inertia of a body, which is its resistance to a change of velocity. Mass can also be thought of as the quantity of matter in a body. The mass of a body affects the gravitational attraction force between it and other bodies. This force appears in many applications in statics. Force is the action of one body on another. A force tends to move a body in the direction of its action. The action of a force is characterized by its magnitude, by the direction of its action, and by its point of application. Thus force is a vector quantity.. A particle is a body of negligible dimensions. In the mathematical sense, a particle is a body whose dimensions are considered to be near zero so that we may analyze it as a mass concentrated at a point. We often choose a particle as a differential element of a body. We may treat a body as a particle when its dimensions are irrelevant to the description of its position or the action of forces applied to it. Rigid body. A body is considered rigid when the change in distance between any two of its points is negligible for the purpose at hand. For instance, the calculation of the tension in the cable which supports the boom of a mobile crane under load is essentially unaffected by the small internal deformations in the structural members of the boom. For the purpose, then, of determining the external forces which act on the boom, we may treat it as a rigid body. Statics deals primarily with the calculation of external forces which act on rigid bodies in equilibrium. Determination of the internal deformations belongs to the study of the mechanics of deformable bodies, which normally follows statics in the curriculum.

Truss:A framework composed of members joined at their ends to form arigid structure is called a truss. e.g; Trusses of roofing system, bridge trusses, transmission towers etc. Types of trusses: There are two types of trusses. i) Plane truss ii) Space truss

Solution Manual by Khalid Yousaf BS(Continue)Civil Engineering The University of Lahore. .

Solution Manual by Khalid Yousaf BS(Continue)Civil Engineering The University of Lahore. Plane Truss: When the members of the truss lie essentially in a single plane, the truss is called a plane truss. Space Truss: When the members of the

truss do not lie in the same plane, the truss is called space truss. Type of plane trusses depending upon the arrangement of members.

SimpleTruss:A truss which is constructed from a basic triangular structure to such a manner that to increase new elements, two members and one joint is added, is known as simple truss. Compound Truss: A compound truss is formed by connecting two or more simple trusses. Complex Truss: It is a truss which cannot be classified as simple or compound. Assumptions in the analysis and design of trusses. 1-Members are joined together by smooth pins, although the members are riveted, bolted and welded. 2-The centre line of all the members are concurrent at the joint. 3-All the loads are only applied at the joints and the weight of the members is assumed negligible so there will be only axial forces (tension or compression).

Commonly used bridge trusses.

Stability and Determinacy of Trusses. Stability: External Stability: A truss will be external unstable if all the reactions are concurrent or parallel. Internal Stability: A truss will be internally stable if it is not liable to collapse. A simple truss is always internally stable. Indeterminacy:A truss will be indeterminate in which all support reactions and

Degree of indeterminacy: The access of total number of reactive components or access of members over the available equilibrium equations is known as degree of determinacy. It is convenient to consider stability and determinacy as follows: 1-With respect to reactions. e.g; external stability and determinacy. 2-With respect to members. e.g; internal stability and determinacy. 3-The combination of internal and external conditions. External Determinacy: A determinate structure should have at least three reactions. Ne=r-N Where r=number of reactions N=number of equilibrium equations available.

Internal Determinacy: It can be checked if minimum number of reacting components necessary for the external determinacy and stability are known. m+r=2j where m=number of members r= j= The structure will be stable and determinate if m+r > 2j
