A pin-connected wood truss is loaded and supported as shown. Determine the axial force produced in member GH if PB = 700 lb, PC = 1,900 lb, PD = 2,900 lb, L = 6 ft, and h = 8 ft. Positive choices indicate tension. Negative choices indicate compression.

Use APA Technical Note Q225 entitled Load-Span Tables for APA Structural-Use Panels and ASD procedures to answer the following question.The spacing of joists in a flat roof is 19.2-in. o.c. Roof dead load = 9 psf. Snow load = 59 psf. Roof sheathing is to be an APA rated plywood sheathing, and panels are to be oriented in the strong direction. The load is governed by deflection limits of L/240 for snow load and L/180 for total load. Only consider these limits. Assume multi-span, normal duration of load, dry conditions, and panels 24 inches or wider. Would a panel with a span rating of 32/16 be adequate?

Nucleotide analogs are a class of drugs that are highly effective against many types of viruses. They work by halting the replication of viral genes. They are equally effective at stopping the spread of prion diseases.
