What are vertical loads?
Think about the weight of the building.
Define static equilibrium.
Consider the state of rest in physics.
What is the primary characteristic of vertical loads?
Think about what holds buildings up.
True or False: Static equilibrium ensures forces do not cause movement.
Consider what equilibrium implies in physics.
Given a uniformly loaded beam, determine the maximum negative moment if the load is 500 N/m and the length of the beam is 8 m.
Think about how w and L interact in the formula.
Examine a multi-bay structure under lateral forces. How would you approach redistributing forces if a seismic event causes initial failure in one bay?
