ction the horizontal component is equal to pd^n And finally, the length of each vertical minus the constant,/<2(« — \)—- 2n, is the stress in that vertical.Counters are evidently required in each panel. Another example in which the stresses may be measured directly from the structure itself when… … of the stress in 6-8-10, divided by — . 2 If the span 1-17 is then made equal to the Fig. 106. >|R2 truss drawn to scale, and the construction made as inthe figure, the following is true: Each diagonal is equal to its stress.Each vertical is equal to the stress in the nextvertical toward the…
