Virtual Work Method to Solve for Deflection of a Truss - Solved Example with Table

In this question, we show you how to solve for the deflection at a point of a determinate truss using the virtual work method. We advise you to try to solve the axial forces using the method of joints by yourself and compare to our values, as this is the part that students usually mess up during a test.

Virtual work method for frame:    / watchv=qxboo-rxrqs  
Virtual work for beam:    / watchv=oslydsbmjna  
Method of joints for trusses:    / watchv=xho_828n6jm
