truss: simply supported right-angle triangle truss

Submitted by ngcobo bh on

A simple supported right-angle triangle truss of 1/2( 5 x 12 ) meter square, is subjected with 50KN and 25KN at the mid-span and top end of the truss respectively. The truss is having two internal members one acting horizontal at the mid-span and the other acting diagonal from support A to joint at a point on the slanted side of right angle triangle.
Taking into account that the pined support is on the right and the roller on the left.
You are required to check the determinant and compute the reactions of this truss.
