Fig. P2(a) shows a perspective view of a billboard supported by three equally-spaced trusses. Te truss spacing is shown as d in the figure. The billboard is subjected to a uniform wind pressure of 100 lb/ft Each truss is made of hollow circular steel tubes with an inner radius of 2 inches and an outer radius of 4 inches. Use the tributary arca meth compute the (wind) loads acting on the center truss. The model of the center truss is...

Write the MATLAB code and use the function linsolve() to solve the system of linear equations. Thank you! l Truss A truss is a structure that typically consists of 1. All straight members 2. connected together with pin joints 3. connected only at the ends of the members 4. and all external forces (loads&reactions) must be applied only at the joints. The weights of the members may be neglected. The basic building block of a truss is a triangle. Large...
