The analysis of arched trussed bents by moment and thrust distribution
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThe neutral point of a truss-column joint can be determined very easily, using the thrust stiffnesses. Once the neutral point is determined the moment and thrust distribution about the neutral point may be performed quite rapidly, since the thrusts and moments converge more rapidly about the neutral point than about the joint. The actual process of distribution of moments and thrusts follows the pattern outlined by Professor D.H. Pletta in his <u>Notes on Statically Indeterminate Structures</u>⁷.
