Given the truss framing, loaded and supported as shown. Note that at Point G, it is pin-supported for its reaction(s). While at Point A, it is roller-supported for its reaction(s). 4m 4m B F 6KN 4m E () 8KN 4m Provide the solutions and answers to the following questions: 1. What is the magnitude of the internal axial load of member BC (2.5 points), indicate whether it is acting in compression or tension (2.5 points)? 2. What is the magnitude of the internal axial load of member FC (2.5 points), indicate whether it is acting in compression or tension (2.5 points)? 3. What is the magnitude of the internal axial load of member CE (2.5 points), indicate whether it is acting in compression or tension (2.5 points)? Draw the free body diagram (FBD) of the joints you are analyzing, together with the accompanying solutions / calculations (10 points). Failure to do so will invalidate your answers in Questions A.1 to A.3. Do not forget to indicate your assumptions for direction of forces, and internal axial loads in your analysis. B.
