Section Method: Problem 001-ms

The document contains instructions for solving problems involving determining forces in members of truss structures using the method of sections. It provides diagrams of various truss structures and guides the reader to take sections in specific locations to set up and solve equations for the unknown member forces. Solutions are given in terms of forces being in tension or compression.
