MCQS ON TRUSS
1.King post type truss may be used for span ranging from
5 to 8 m, 8 to 12 m, 12 to 20 m , 20 to 25 m
2.Queen post type truss may be used for span ranging from
5 to 8 m, 8 to 12 m, 12 to 20 m , 20 to 25 m
3. Pick up the incorrect statement from the following
1. All the members of the frame are Fixed-joined.
2. The frame is loaded only at the joints.
3. The frame is a perfect one.
4. The weight of the members, unless stated otherwise, is regarded as negligible in comparison
with the other external forces or loads acting on the truss.
4. When any member of the truss is subjected to the external force P as shown below, what
kind of internal force will be produced in it?
Tensile, Compressive, Shear, Bending
5. When any member of the truss is subjected to the external force P as shown below, what kind
of internal force will be produced in it?
Tensile, Compressive, Shear, Bending
6. The graphical method of determining the forces in the members of a truss is based on
(A) Method ofjoint
(B) Method ofsection
(C) Eithermethod
(D) None of the two
7. If m = no. of members, j = no. of joints and r = no. of reaction then A truss is said to be a perfect truss
if
m = 2j + r, m > 2j – r, m < 2j – r, m = 2j - r
8. If m = no. of members, j = no. of joints and r = no. of reaction then A truss is said to be an imperfect
truss if
m = 2j + r, m > 2j – r, m < 2j – r, m = 2j – r
9. If m = no. of members, j = no. of joints and r = no. of reaction then A truss is said to be redundant
truss if
m = 2j + r, m > 2j – r, m < 2j – r, m = 2j – r
