	Structural engineering relies heavily on the strengths of materials and their ability to withstand forces of tension, compression & shear. When used in conjunction with each other, as in the case of a truss, individual load bearing members both share and transmit loads, enabling the structure to accomplish much more than any individual member could alone.

	~~The~~ simplest truss is a triangle made of three points: '''A''', '''B''' and '''C''', and three members: '''AB''', '''BC''' and '''CA'''. The method of distributing forces amongst many members relies on the engineer's ability to place a ''tensile'' or ''compressive'' force at any particular location. To properly sum forces at a particular point, one must be able to sum forces into that point and also away from it. Thus, '''AB''' and '''AC''' are in compression while '''BC''' is in tension.
