1. Calculate all the stresses in this truss. Using low carbon steel, calculate the minimum diameter
of each member to maintain a factor of safety of 2.0. The height of the truss is 12 feet, the
spacing between horizontal joints is 15 feet.
Force at B is 8000 Ibs down, Fis 5300 Ibs down, and E = 3300 Ibs down.
