Essentials in the theory of framed structures . nate, cannot be accurately computed until the truss has beendesigned. In order that a preliminary design may be made;the reactions will be tentatively determined by assuming thatthe truss functions as a beam of uniform cross-section, con-tinuous over three level supports. Only the end reactions Roare necessary. They are given in Table II as determined fromEqs. (9) and (11) page 257. By this process it is possible tocompute the stresses and make a preliminary design, after whichthe true reactions may be determined. Talbe II r lb. at i?o 1,000 lb.
