Document Summary

1)find the forces in the truss members required. 2)find l, w and t, then an1, an2 and an3 (s22) and use to find ane = an1 + an2 + an3 <= ag. *note that t should be subtracted to w to account for the weld: an1 = wt. An3 = (1-x/l)wt where x is the distance from the weld to the. An3 = 0. 50 lt: convert dimensions (1 = 25. 4mm) in mm if required use appropriate table to find. Ag (w: s8, s79, angles: s25, s31, channels: s37, ) For complicated cross-section geometries use : ane = ag(1-x/l: find tension resistance. Use table ps2 to determine fv = fy and fu with respect to the date published. Tr = uanefu x 10-3, where u = 0. 75: maximum slenderness. Check that : l/r <= 300, where r = radius of gyration = i. A , find both rx and ry and l is the total length. (i "=i+ a x2)
