Given that $m \angle A= 60^\circ$, $BC=12$ units, $\overline{BD} \perp \overline{AC}$, $\overline{CE} \perp \overline{AB}$ and $m \angle DBC = 3m \angle ECB$, the length of segment $EC$ can be expressed in the form $a(\sqrt{b}+\sqrt{c})$ units where $b$ and $c$ have no perfect-square factors. What is the value of $a+b+c$?
