### Problem Statement **Structure Details:** - A truss structure is shown with joints labeled from A to E and load applications at points G, H, and J. - Vertical supports are shown at points A and E. - The horizontal segments between joints are all 8 feet apart. **Loads:** - At point G: 10 kips - At point H: 24 kips - At point J: 24 kips - At the end of the truss: 10 kips at joint J **Supports:** - A pinned support at joint A, allowing rotation but no horizontal movement, indicated by the triangular symbol. - A roller support at joint E, allowing horizontal movement but not vertical movement, depicted by a circle with an underlying line. ### Task **Objective:** Determine the internal forces for members BC and GH only, using the **method of sections**. **Instructions:** Analyze the forces acting on the specified truss members using statics principles and the method of sections, focusing specifically on BC and GH. Consider the equilibrium of forces acting on sections of the truss to find the internal forces.
