摘要
The paper presents results of calculations of forces in members of selected types of statically indeterminate trusses carriedout by application of the two-stage method of computations of such structural systems. The method makes possible to do the simple andapproximate calculations of the complex trusses in two stages, in each of which is calculated a statically determinate truss being anappropriate counterpart of the basic form of the statically indeterminate truss structure. Systems of the statically determinate trussesconsidered in the both stages are defined by cancelation of members, number of which is equal to the statically indeterminacy of thebasic truss. In the paper are presented outcomes obtained in the two-stage method applied for two different shapes of trusses and carriedout for various ways of removing of appropriate members from the basic trusses. The results are compared with outcomes gained due toapplication of suitable computer software for computation of the same types of trusses and for the same structural conditions.
