space frame flying gangway

[stuartwhiteford]

I need to find the forces in the members of a space frame (in the shape of a right-angled triangle with the right angle in the top right) which has a uniformly distributed load on the top member. Is it possible to solve this using the method of joints, and if so how? Thanks.
