• ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURES
• Frames and Machines
• Major engineering structures composed of
  pin-connected multi-force members
• Usually requires at least 2 FBDs for solution
• Frames are generally stationary and are used to
  support loads
• Machines contain moving parts and are used to
  transmit forces
