(a) Draw the influence line for force in member CD, and then (b) determine the maximum force (both tension and compression) that can be developed in this member due to a uniform live load of 12kNm which acts along the bottom cord of the truss.
Fcd at 9m? why 0.75? i solved
x>=9
moment G =0
-ay(6m)+fcd(3m)=0
(Ay=(12-x)/12)
x=9->Fcd=0.5
why 0.75?
( a ) Draw the influence line for force in member
