T = Vector of the tension in every member when a given load is applied (Load Magnitude/Location specific) + the support reaction forces
W = Vector of the critical applied loads for each member. The load must be applied at a specific joint (Same as done in L). 
Therefore, the lowest value in this vector is the critical load of the
truss and it's index corresponds to the critical member (Load Location specific ONLY)
cost = Decimal Cost of the given truss
Wcrit = The max weight that can be applied at load location in L before buckling
