Using virtual work (unit load) method, determine the vertical displacement at Joint D of the steel truss as shown in the following figure due to applied load P kN at D and member BC is too long by 8 mm & member AB is too short by 5 mm. The cross-sectional area of each member is 400 mm² and the modulus of elasticity is 200 GPa. P kN V D 6 m А B 5m 5m
