This model demonstrates a truss structure featuring a K-joint configuration with gusset and notched tongue plates. The connections are bolted, and the structure utilizes hollow cross-sections with rectangular hollow sections (RHS). This setup is often used to optimize load transfer between the segments of the truss. The configuration highlights the efficiency of employing gusset plates in jointing methods.
