  • Engineering mechanics coursework for MEng mechanical engineering first year at Sussex Uni, truss design, watch at half speed for a slo mo effect.
    edges were cut, and filed to fit snugly together, wood glue was used to bond the "beams" together.
    Each mass is approx 1kg (carrier too), span was approx 30cm, total it held was 10kg+
    I created this video with the UA-cam Video Editor ( / editor )

    Good video, and great break to analyse - joint failure. BUT everyone needs to know this is NOT a warren truss. it is a PRATT or N triuss. Warren has an A shape to the members.

    What is the object that you attach on to the hook in the video which you put the weights on? I wanted to get something like that so I could hang weight off of my students truss bridges.

    How much weight did it withstand and what type of materials did you used?

      A little over 100N (roughly 11Kg of mass added), and balsa wood with small 'lashings' or knots tied around the main vertices of the truss.
