Assumptions for Design All members are connected at both ends
by smooth frictionless pins. All loads are applied at joints (member
weight is negligible). Notes:
Centroids of all joint members coincide at the joint.
All members are straight. All load conditions satisfy Hooke’s law.

• Complex Trusses
• Determinacy
b + r = 2j statically determinateb + r > 2j statically indeterminate
In particular, the degree of indeterminacy is specified by the difference in thenumbers (b + r) - 2j.

• Stability
b + r < 2j unstableb + r 2j unstable if truss support reactions are concurrent or parallel
or if some of the components of the truss form a collapsiblemechanism
External Unstable
Unstable-parallel reactions Unstable-concurrent reactions

Example 3-1
Classify each of the trusses in the figure below as stable, unstable, statically determinate, or statically indeterminate. The trusses are subjected to arbitrary external loadings that are assumed to be known and can act anywhere on the trusses.

SOLUTION
Externally stable, since the reactions are not concurrent or parallel. Since b = 19,r = 3, j = 11, then b + r = 2j or 22 = 22. Therefore, the truss is statically determinate.By inspection the truss is internally stable.
Externally stable. Since b = 15, r = 4, j = 9, then b + r > 2j or 19 > 18. The truss is statically indeterminate to the first degree. By inspection the truss is internally stable.

Externally stable. Since b = 9, r = 3, j = 6, then b + r = 2j or 12 = 12. The truss is statically determinate. By inspection the truss is internally stable.
Externally stable. Since b = 12, r = 3, j = 8, then b + r < 2j or 15 < 16. The truss is internally unstable.
