1 Draw a Free-Body Diagram of the member to identify all the forces that act on it.
2 Write the equations of equilibrium for the member.
3 Add additional equations by describing the displacement of the various axially
loaded components of the member keeping in mind the condition that, at points
where the sections meet the displacements must be equal (i.e. compatibility must
be maintained throughout the member)

4 These additional equations are used to determine the number of unknown reaction
forces.
