(12) Figure Q12 shows a framework consisting of 3 upward pointing isosceles triangles and 2 downward pointing isosceles triangles. The framework is loaded at joint F with a downward force of 20 kN. The applied force causes a vertical reaction force at A and D. The design of the framework is such that horizontal base of the isosceles triangles form an angle of 30° degrees with the diagonal members. You are asked to find the internal force in member AE in kilo-Newtons to 1 decimal place (using the standard sign convention given in the module formula booklet)? Select the valid option from the list below. E F S 20 kN RAX = ?? KN 30° 30° 30° 30° 30° 30° A H H B D RAV = ?? KN Roy = ?? KN A. The solution to the problem is found to be -20.0 kN. ○ B. The solution to the problem is found to be -10.0 kN. ○ C. The solution to the problem is found to be +11.5 kN. OD. The solution to the problem is found to be +23.1 kN. O E. No Valid Answer
