Think about how structures behave during earthquakes.
True or False: A cantilever beam has multiple dynamic degrees of freedom.
Consider the number of independent movements in a cantilever.
Given a structure with two cantilever beams and one fixed support beam, calculate the total dynamic degrees of freedom.
Count the independent movements for each beam.
