- NOTE: This is a multi-part question. Once an answer is submitted, you will be unable to return to this part. A roof truss is shown. Take the load P = 1.7 kN. Determine the force in each member of the roof truss shown. State whether each member is in tension (T) or compression (C). Note: please double check answers. Thanks.arrow_forwardThe beam shown here is made of wood with an allowable shear stress of τall = 1100 psi. If PB = 5 kips, determine the maximum allowable force PC that can be applied on the structure before the beam fails in shear.[LAB= 2 ft, LBC= 2 ft, LCD= 1.5 ft, b = 1.25 in., h = 7 in.] Determine the maximum value of the first moment of area (Q) for the beam.
