Question

Determine the tension F_T in the support cable and the force F_A at pin A for a cantilever truss supporting a 65.0 kN billboard at point E, neglecting the weight of the truss itself.

Diagram of a cantilever truss with a billboard and support cable, showing forces and distances.

Accepted Answer
