Problem 1 A simply supported truss is given, with 9 members, and an overall dimension of 48 ft Lx 12 ft H. The applied loads are in kips. There is a roller at A and a pin at D. At B there is an applied load of 75 k downward. At C there is an applied load of 100 k downward. At Ethere is a horizontal load of 75 k to the left. There are 3 16-ft spans. Find all the bar forces and determine whether each bar force is tensile or compressive.
