A simple 5-Member Triangular Truss is loaded at joint D with a Horizontal force as shown in the figure. Which of the following truss members are Zero-Force Members. Recall that a Zero Force Member is a any single truss segment in which, given a specific load, is neither in tension, nor in compression.
