    1. Hello. to calculate the truss, it will be easier if you start from the joint A. You could calculate the moment at that joint.

    2. Okay. I have calculated it. Then, which part i have to calculate to continue with the other joint?

  3. After that, find the force at Joint F. Do the same thing at the Joint C and Joint D. The calculation at Joint C is same as at the Joint A. While, Joint D same as at the Joint F.
