In a truss element, element temperature load is ___

a) θe=EeAe
b) θe=EeAeε0
c) θe=EeAeε0\(\begin{Bmatrix}l \\ m \end{Bmatrix}\)
d) θe=EeAeε0\(\begin{Bmatrix}-l \\ -m \\l\\m\end{Bmatrix}\)

Answer: d
Explanation: In a truss, temperature effect is arised then thermal stress problem is considered here. Since the element is simply a one dimensional element when viewed in local co-ordinate system, the element temperature load in the local co-ordinate system.
