The image shows a truss structure (fagverk) ABCDE, with fixed supports at points D and E. There are two external loads applied: a 2 kN force at point A in the negative z-direction, and a 5 kN force at point C in the positive x-direction. The geometry of the truss is given with specific lengths and heights, and we are asked to find the forces in the truss members, specifically labeled as \( N_{AB}, N_{BC}, N_{BD}, N_{AC}, N_{CD}, N_{CE} \), where tensile forces are positive and compressive forces are negative.

### Problem Breakdown:
- The structure is symmetric.
- Forces and reactions are to be computed to maintain equilibrium.
- We are using a method to find the **member forces** (stresses in the truss elements).

Given that \( N_{BC} \) has been prefilled with -5 kN (indicating compression), let's proceed to calculate the forces in the other members using static equilibrium equations and methods like the **method of joints** or **section method**.

Shall I proceed with calculating the internal forces in the other members based on this setup?

The image shows a truss structure (fagverk) ABCDE with fixed supports at points D and E. A 2 kN force acts at point A in the negative z-direction, and a 5 kN force acts at point C in the positive x-direction. Calculate the internal forces in the truss members labeled N_AB, N_BC, N_BD, N_AC, N_CD, N_CE.

Solve the truss structure ABCDE using the method of joints and equilibrium equations. A 2 kN load acts at point A in the negative z-direction, and a 5 kN force acts at point C in the positive x-direction. Learn how to calculate the internal forces in members N_AB, N_BC, N_BD, N_AC, N_CD, N_CE.
