Question: A space truss structure shown in the figure below can be considered as a system of concurrent forces in 3 D . The figure below

A space truss structure shown in the figure below can
be considered as a system of concurrent forces in 3D.
The figure below shows the four forces TA,TB,TC and TD.
Force Tc is located on the x-z plane, Force T has
two projection angles: =60 is the projection angle of the
force TB to the x-y plane, and =30 is the angle between
the projected force and x-axis. Force T0 actr along
line OD, and force TA is located as shown in the figure
below. If it is known that force TB is 100 kips and the
system of forces is in equilibrivm condition, calculate the
magnitude of the forces TA,TC, and TD.
