The Fink truss is supported by a hinge at A and by rollers on a 2 to 3 slope at G. The bracing bars are normal to the inclined members at their midpoints. The wind loads are perpendicular to AC. Determine all bar forces. Determine the joint, memeber, and force.  Follow the following procedure: Step 1: Solve reaction if possible Step 2: Choose any joint withminimal unknowns Step 3: Choose another joint with minimal unknowns  Step 4: Change tension direction immediately Step 5: Mark the forces that were computed in the original truss for monitoring
