NB forum etiquette, USING ALL CAPS IS LIKE SHOUTING IN A CONVERSATION.

You can use ADAMS if you have it, but it's basic structural analysis that you should have done at Uni in the first or second year.

There are a couple of free FE packages about that might be useful, search for CADRE or GRAPE on the net.

Pencil, paper and a calculator plus some useful approximations are all that's required to get in the ballpark though.
