The truss is fabricated using members having a weight of 10 lb/ft. Remove the external forces from the truss, and determine the force in each member due to the weight of the members. State whether the members are in tension or compression. Assume that the total force acting on a joint is the sum of half of the weight of every member connected to thejoint.
