(b) (9 points) Draw the corresponding
Free Body Diagrams for the three
following cases

(a) (3 points) In the drawing to the right, the crate is kept in
equilibrium on an inclined rough surface as shown. What are
the two extreme cases and what is the direction of the friction
force in each of these cases (state and explain the cases, no
need to calculate).
Answer: The two extreme cases are (1) the block is about to slide down (friction is up the slope),
and (2) the block is about to be pushed up (friction is down the slope)
(b) (Bonus - 5 points) In each of the following
cases express the cable tension T in terms of
the weight of the crate.

Question 2 (20 + 5 points) A Polynesian, or duopitch
roof truss is loaded as shown.
(a) (5 points) What is the distance from point A
that the line of action of the resultant of the
external loadings crosses the base of the truss?
Solution:
𝑅 = 200 + 400 + 400 + 400 + 350 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 150 = 2800 𝑙𝑏 ↓
𝑀𝐴 = 𝑅 ∗ 𝑑 = 400 ∗ 6 + 400 ∗ 12 + 400 ∗ 18 + 350 ∗ 24 + 300 ∗ 30 + 300 ∗ 36 + 300 ∗ 42
+ 150 ∗ 48 = 62,400 𝑙𝑏 ∗ 𝑓𝑡
⟹ 𝑑 = 22.3 𝑓𝑡
(b) (10 points) Determine the forces in members FE, FH and FG.
Solution:
From the analysis of the whole truss:

Now do a cut through FH, FG and EG:
∑ 𝑀𝐺 = 0 = −𝐴 ∗ 24 + 200 ∗ 24 + 400 ∗ 18 + 400
∗ 12 + 400 ∗ 6 − 𝐹𝐹𝐻 ∗4
√42 + 62∗ 6
− 𝐹𝐹𝐻 ∗6
√42 + 62∗ 4.5
⟹ 𝐹𝐹𝐻 =−16800
7.07= −2375.4 𝑙𝑏
⟹ 𝐹𝐹𝐻 = 2375 𝑙𝑏 𝐶
∑ 𝐹𝑦 = 0 = 𝐴 − 200 − 400 − 400 − 400 − 𝐹𝐹𝐻 ∗4
√42 + 62− 𝐹𝐹𝐺 ∗
4.5
√4.52 + 62
⟹ 𝐹𝐹𝐺 =−1217.4
0.6= −2029 𝑙𝑏
⟹ 𝐹𝐹𝐺 = 2029 𝑙𝑏 𝐶
(c) (5 points) If the external force at point B is removed, what the external force at K needs to
be in order for the forces in AB and AC to remain the same as in part (b)? No need to
calculate the actual forces in the above members.
Solution: for AB and AC to remain the same, the reaction at A needs to stay the same. In order
for the reaction at A to remain the same, the moment around N created by the external loading
needs to remain the same.
𝐵 ∗ 𝑑𝑏 + 𝐾 ∗ 𝑑𝑘 = 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑡 = 400 ∗ 42 + 300 ∗ 12 = 𝐾 ∗ 12
⟹ 𝐾 = 1700 𝑙𝑏
(d) (Bonus - 5 points) If the external force at point B is removed, by examination, what are
the zero-force members? Explain.
Solution: joint B is a special case => BC=0. Now joint C becomes a special case, leading to
CD=0.

Question 3 (30 points) The press shown to the right is used
to emboss a small seal at E.
(a) (10 points) Knowing that the coefficient of static
friction between the vertical guide and the embossing
die D is 0.30, determine the force exerted by the die
on the seal.
6
(b) (5 points) What is the reaction at A?
Solution: From the ABC member:
∑ 𝐹𝑥 = 0 = 𝐴𝑥 − 𝐹𝐵𝐷 sin 20 ⟹ 𝐴𝑥 = 271 𝑁 →
∑ 𝐹𝑦 = 0 = 𝐴𝑦 + 𝐹𝐵𝐷 cos 20 − 250 ⟹ 𝐴𝑦 = −496 𝑁 ↓
𝐴 = √𝐴𝑥2 + 𝐴𝑦
2 = 565 𝑁 ↘
𝜃 = tan−1𝐴𝑦
𝐴𝑥= 61.3°
(c) (5 points) The machine base shown to the right has a
mass of 75 kg and is fitted with skids at A and B. The
coefficient of static friction between the skids and the
floor is 0.30. If a force P of magnitude 500 N is applied
at corner C explain the two modes of motion possible
for the base.
Solution: the two extreme cases are (1) the block sliding (small θ), and (2) the block tipping by
rotating around B (large θ).
7
(d) (10 points) Determine the range of values of θ for which the base will not move.
