Abstract: This paper discusses the constraints imposed upon equilibrium and compatibility solutions in structures through the use of constitutive equations. It is shown, for example, that ``realizable'' force systems are bounded by statically determinate force systems for the case of trusses. The analysis used depends heavily upon the concept of ``basic solutions'' (statically determinate substructures) for linear systems which appears most commonly in the theory of linear programming.
