I know BE is a zero force member but I can't find the force applied at BD? Also state if it's in compression or tension.
Extracted text: Calculate the forces in members BE and BD of the loaded truss. The forces are positive if in tension, negative if in compression. Assume F = 3.3 kN, a = 2.4 m, b = 3 m, c = 2 m, and d = 2 m. %3D В b |b a a A9 E D F ВЕ kN BD = kN BE
