Consider a 7-truss structure. The cross-section area of all horizontal and vertical trusses is 3 inch^2, while the diagonal trusses have a cross sectional area of 1 inch^2. The truss structure is steel (modulus is 30 Msi). All horizontal and vertical truss members are 5 ft in length. Determine the maximum load P such that the highest stressed bar does not exceed t
