Question: Problem # 7 : For the truss structure shown in the figure, the pins for Joints A , B , C & D are all

Problem # 7: For the truss structure shown in the figure, the pins for Joints A, B, C & D are all made from ASTM A572 high-strength low-alloy columbium-vanadium structural steel, Grade psi). Pins at Joints A & C are in double shear and the load on them is static.
Determine the following for this structure.
A) Reaction at support points A&D= lbs.
B) Axial forces in members AD&DC= Ibs.
C) Axial force in members AB&BC= lbs.
D) Axial force in member BD= lbs.
E) Yield strength in shear for ASTM A572, Grade 50 Pins =Sys= psi
F) Design Shear Stress for pins =d=SysN= si
G) Required cross-sectional area of pins at Joints A&C=n2
H) Required diameter of pins at Joints A&C=-0.192 inch
Please show steps and explain
