A simple example of these objects is the king post type, while the Howe and Pratt types differ only inthe direction of the diagonal. A graphical method for analyzing these objects is the Maxwell-Cremonadiagram. More commonly, these objects are analyzed in two or more parts using the method of sections, orby using the method of joints. These structures are characterized by passive revolute, or pin, joints; thus,unlike frames, analysis of these structures explicitly assumes a lack of moments. These structures consist ofbeams arranged to form triangles, which ensures they will not change shape when bearing a load. For 10points, name these common
