1. Calculate all the stresses in this truss. Using low carbon steel, calculate the minimum diameter of each member to maintain a factor of safety of 2.0. The height of the truss is 12 feet, the spacing between horizontal joints is 15 feet. Force at B is 8000 lbs down, F is 5300 lbs down, and E = 3300 lbs down. ATHalino.com

Although the attached question says solve for all truss stresses, The problem is actually to solve for the reaction forces at point A and H along with the stress or compression forces (in pounds) for truss members AB and AC
Then ,finally to calculate the minimum diameter of low carbon steel rod needed to withstand the forces in AB and AC truss members.
Thanks
