+Lac=6 //m // length of the tie

+// Here A is simply supported & B is roller support. Now the SUPPORT REACTIONS are given as,

+Ra=W1+W2-Rc //N // Take sum Fy=0
+// Calculations
+// Calculating the axial forces in the respective members by METHOD OF SECTION
+// A section is drawn passing through member DE such that it cuts the respective member. Now consider the equilibrium of the left hand portion of the truss. The three unknown forces are Fde, Fdb, & Fab
+// Take moment about B
+Fde=((3*Ra)-(W1*Lab*sind(30)))/(3*cosd(30)) //N // (T)
