Question

Identify all zero force members on the truss. If there are no zero force members, then state so.

The diagram represents a truss structure supported at points A and E, with marked distances and external forces.

### Structure Details:
- **Support Points:**
  - **A:** Fixed support on the left side.
  - **E:** Roller support on the right side.

- **Connections:**
  - **Segments: AH, AB, BH, BG, HG, HC, GC, GD, GF, DF, DE:**
    - Each segment is 2 meters in length.

### Forces and Loads:
- **At Point B:**
  - A downward force of 25 kN.
- **At Point C:**
  - A downward force of 25 kN.
- **At Point F:**
  - A horizontal force directed to the right of 13 kN.

This truss structure highlights typical loading scenarios and support reactions, suitable for analyzing mechanical stability and stress distribution.
