Cantilever truss

Check the box to flip the diagonals and see what happens.
Use the slider to go through the construction: 1-2) constructing the loadline and labelling the spaces; 3-4) finding the resultant of the set of loads, using a trial funicular polygon; 5-6) using an equivalent structure in which the resultant is directly distributed into the supports to determine the reaction forces; 7-8) constructing the force diagram and identifying the internal forces in the truss members graphically.
