Question

Assertion (A): In the analysis of pin-jointed plane frames, the force method is generally preferable to the displacement method.

Reason (R): The degrees of freedom for pin jointed plane frames are generally much larger than the degrees of static indeterminacy and thus the force method requires less formulation and computation than the displacement method.
