The given truss is formed by hinging member AB, BC and AC together. The truss is supported by a pin support at the point A and a roller support at the point C. Areas of members AB, BC and AC are 200 mm, 800 mm² and 100 mm². Determine the factor of safety for the given structure. Use Fy 100MPa and E-200GPa and consider only in-plane bucking of the structure.
