  15. TRUSSES • Trusses act as long ,deep girders with the cutout webs. • Roof trusses not only carry their own weight and the weight of the roof framing but also wind loads, snow loads, suspended ceilings and equipment, and a live load during construction and maintenance, and repair.

  16. TRUSSES • Bridge trusses have to support their own weight and that of deck framing and deck live loads from traffic (automobiles, trucks, railroad trains, pedestrians, etc.) and forces caused by live loads.

  17. TRUSSES • Other uses of trusses are for conveyor frames in the material handling systems. Conveyors are uses to transport material, without the use of mobile equipment. Trusses in the material handling can reach spans in excess of 100 feet. • Crane Booms are constructed of trusses, in order to give them the ability to lift large amounts of weight with smaller lighter steel members.

  18. EXPERIMENTAL TRUSS • Basic Shape and Construction • Truss was constructed from Popsicle sticks • Truss configuration was a three section Warren truss. • Basic bridge dimensions are 13.5 inches long, 3.5 inches tall, and 2 inches wide.

  24. Predicted Weakness/Strength • The quality of the wood used in the Popsicle stick may very greatly and therefore lead to the failure of a member prematurely. • The glue used at the connections may not be of equal amounts at each point, this would cause one joint to fail prior to the wood member failing. • The Warren truss, although simple in design, is one of the more common trusses used in the construction industry to span a distance with the use of smaller members.

  25. THEORETICAL STRENGTH • Material of Construction Popsicle Stick Cross-Sectional Area (3/8 inch x 1/16 inch) .02347375 Square Inches • Ultimate Shear Strength in psi for white pine is 860 psi Shear Force= 860psi/.02347375 sq in

  26. THEORETICAL STRENGTH • Shear Force= 20.16 lbs per side • Two sides under common load=Total load of 20.16lbs.times 2= 40.32 lbs. • Maximum Load= 40.32 lbs.

  39. TRUSS TEST 25.8 LBS 3 2 1 9 11 4 8 10 7 6 5 MEMBER NINE MISSING

  40. TEST RESULTS • Number 3 missing, the horizontal force that number three should have had resulted in to much force at the connection on members 10, 11, 6, and 5 thereby causing failure. • Number 6 missing caused the bridge to rotate around the load point causing failure.

  41. TEST REUSLTS • Number 10 missing, the bridge could withstand more load since the force was transferred to member 9 until it became overloaded and failure occurred • Number 4 missing, the load was carried by the majority of the truss until the bending of member 5 failed.

  42. TEST RESULTS • Number 7 missing, the truss could withstand the greater load until the connection at members 1, 8, and 2 failed. • Number 8 missing, test procedure error occurred on this test but the results would be approximately the same as if member 11 was missing.

  43. TEST RESULTS • Number 11 missing, the loading of the bridge had reached its maximum point at which failure occurred at member 5 due to shear forces. • Number 2 missing, the results would be the same a number 3 missing but due to the difference in the wood quality and amount of glue applied at the joints the resultants loads were slightly different.

  44. TESTRESULTS Number 9 missing, this test would have the same results as if member 10 was missing, but due to the different quality of wood and the amount of glue used in the connections, the final result of maximum loads were different.

  45. CONCLUSION • The full truss tested very close to the theoretical value 40 lbs vs. 40.32 lbs. • Removing a single member greatly reduced the amount weight that the bridge could hold. • The fact that the unit was a truss allowed for a value of greater than 20.16 lbs when a single member was missing. • Some of the failures occurred because of the inconsistency of the type of wood product.

  46. CONCLUSION • It is very important to make sure that the same amount of glue is used at each connection point.
