Truss Analysis - Method of Joints

This video addresses the concept of "Method of Joints" which is used to analyze truss structures. The video includes basic theory, uses a simple example to demonstrate the computational method, and shows an experiment that validates the theoretical results. This video is intended for advanced high school physics students and beginning engineering students. More information on this subject can be found at www.labratscientific.com

Thanks! Helped a lot with understanding truss problems

Thanks a lot for the video. It had given me the insight on the sense of force directions. Can you please do the same experiment with a internal member connecting the member AB and AC at the mid points.
