A TRUSS is a structure or structure system made up of straight slender MEMBERS joined together at end points called JOINTS. . As shown below, members in a truss are usually arranged in a triangular fashion with defined geometry. . As the basic shape of a triangle is a stable form, any structure that is comprised of members in a triangular arrangement can be identified as a rigid, stable structure. . . . . #trusses #structuralanalysis #structuralengineer #supportreactions #statics #civilengineering #engineeringstudent #rollersupport #pinnedsupport #millennialengineer #gatorengineer #prepineer #members #joints #methodofjoints #methodofsections #feexam #eitexam #eitin2017 #nsbeconvention #nsbeconvention2017 #classof2021 (at Southwest Recreation Center)
