Thank you for your question. Force DG does not produce a moment about point G because the line of action of the force goes through G. Another way to think about this is that the perpendicular distance between the point of interest (G) and the line of action of the force is zero. Therefore, the moment would be zero (force times perpendicular distance from the point of interest to the line of action of the force). Thank you again for the question!
Sir your explanation was awesome.
From ghana
Like your explanation very clear
Thank you very much.
Very clear explanation..
may i ask, why in moment G calculation, force DG is not included?

Please why taking moment about point G, you did not include point GD
The GD is also at the same point so it will vanish
Very nice explanation sir
Thank you so much for your feedback!
I HAVE A QUESTION. I have solved it, i want you to confirm if im right . what if there is a downward force in node G?
I finished the hell hole of statics 4 months ago.
WHY TF IS THIS IN MY RECOMMENDED
