Question

The tripod shown supports a 5-m by 2-m rectangular panel through member AB, which is parallel to z-axis. The tripod is designed so that the resultant of the force in members BC, BD and BE is equivalent to the compressive force in member BA. Note that point A is at the centroid of the rectangular panel. Given the coordinates:
A(0, 6.5, 1.5) m    
B(0, 6.5, 0) m
C(-1.2, 0, 3.4) m
D(4.3, 0, 3) m
E(1.4, 0, -5.4) m

If the rectangular panel carries a wind pressure equivalent to P = 14.6 kPa (kN/m2), calculate the magnitude of the following with complete fbd.
1.    Force in member BC, in kN.
2.    Force in member BD, in kN.
3.    Force in member BE, in kN.
