31. Which type of equilibrium conditions are typically applied at each joint during the method of joint analysis?
- Force equilibrium
- Dynamic equilibrium
- Thermal equilibrium
- Moment equilibrium
Answer
The correct answer is: A) Force equilibrium
Explanation
The method of joints relies on force equilibrium at each joint, where the sum of forces in both horizontal and vertical directions equal zero. This principle helps determine the internal forces in the truss members.
