STATICS
Context:
The structure represented on the figure provided supports a load of 4kN and possesses two types of support, ball jointed, in D and H.
Question 1a: Determine the intern efforts (tension or compression) in the AF and AG members using the knots method.
Question 1b: Determine the intern efforts (tension or compression) in the BC, BD and DE members using the section methods.
The answers are supposed to be : AF=5,66 kN (t), AG=4,00kN (c)
DE=4kN (c) BD=5,66kN (C) and BC =8kN (T).
I just don't understand the methodology to get there.
Thank you for your time!
