By using the method of sections, determine the force in members BC, BF, CF and EF of the truss and state if these members 

By using the method of sections, determine the force in members BC, BF, CF and EF of the truss and state if these members are in tension or compression. Set P= 12 kN, P = 15 kN and P3=9 kN. (Note: you need to use the joint method to determine the force in member BF). P 3m B 3 m E C P 3 m- 3 m D
