No as you said before, we can't assume that both pin have the same vertical forces (25-25). Or, if Rby is equal to 25 and that EFy=0 <=> -50+25+Ray=0 :) so Ray is equal to 0 which is impossible
Thanks Tiny-tim for your response. In fact, I now for vertical external forces and horizontal ones so I divided the 100N vector in two vectors (one with a value of 50N orientated downwards and one with a value of 50•(square root of 3). I found that each pin has a vertical vector orientated...
Hi, I'm new on this website and it seems great :p So, I'm struggling with something really simple... trusses analysis. I'm struggling with moments etc , I've just drawn an example linked in this post , could you try to find the reaction forces (roller pin etc) with some explanation ? Thanks
