Understanding Trusses: Structural Units in Engineering
Trusses are fundamental structural units made of straight bars forming triangles or other stable shapes. They are versatile in applications like roof construction, supporting train tracks, and church ceilings. Comprising structural members, joints, angles, and polygons, trusses distribute weight eff
