Given the Truss as shown below with load P and dimension L. Using Method of Joints, determine the following: a.) The External Reaction at Point A in terms of P. b.) The External Reaction at Point E in terms of P. c.) The Force at Member BF in terms of P.

TEXT:A planar construction is composed of two beam elements and two axial rods. These arejoined with frictionless joints, as indicated on the sketch. The structure is applied an outer concentrated load P=8kN in node G and a downwardevenly distributed load q=4kN/m between junctions A and D. The beam ABCD and EFG are torque rigid,while the axial rods BF and CF only absorb forces in the direction of the rods. A) Calculate the rod forces and for the external given load effect.B) Calculate the bearing reactions for the external given load effect.

Determine the force in member BC of the loaded truss. The force is positive if in tension, negative if in compression. 2.5 kips 3.9 kips 4.6 kips Answer: BC = i kips
