From the given truss below, members are made of A36 (fy = 36ksi and Fu = 58 ksi) steel channel section with A = 1.54 in^2, rx=0.8 in., ry = 0.51in. and X=Y= 9 ft. All applied loads are already factored: F1 = 13 kips, F2 = 29 kips and F3 = 34 kips. Calculate the vertical ultimate load “Pu” that can be applied at Joint I in kips based on the design strength of member GD. Note: A negative (-Pu) may be a possible answer

Question

From the given truss below, members are made of A36 (fy = 36ksi and Fu = 58 ksi) steel channel section with A = 1.54 in^2, rx=0.8 in., ry = 0.51in. and X=Y= 9 ft. All applied loads are already factored: F1 = 13 kips, F2 = 29 kips and F3 = 34 kips. Calculate the vertical ultimate load “Pu” that can be applied at Joint I in kips based on the design strength of member GD. Note: A negative (-Pu) may be a possible answer, if such affix the negative sign before your answer. Express your answer in 2 decimal places.
