Select the minimum mass equal leg angle (EA) for the tensile members

Select the minimum mass equal leg angle (EA) for the tensile members of the truss shown in Figure-1. The point loads due to permanent (G) and imposed (0) actions are given in Figure-1 (Steel Grade 300PLUS). Ignore the Self-weight of the truss (members) and assume that all connections are welded. The members perpendicular to the plane of the truss are only connected to joints through pinned connections. Note: If the maximum available EA size is not adequate then use double EA. The size of EAs used may vary from one tensile member to another one. You must consider all the relevant combinations of actions. 1.5m Eq Ad xxxxxxxx 2.0 m F P Po B | Pa H C 2.0 m2.0 m- Figure-1 Po PG= 60 kN Po= 40 kN
