Excerpt from Problems in Machine Design
In fig. 6 the triangle C A E is again drawn, and forces, as shown, placed at the angles. G is the central area, and it will be noticed that it is necessary to pass the line of action of a force, or to pass over a side of the triangle, to proceed from one area to another. Now, to draw the diagram of stresses, we take 11 m equal to F1, and draw m g, g 11 parallel to A E, E C, which must now be spoken of as the members M G, G H. It is clear that the stress in M G is compressive.
