3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What does performance function mean in structural engineering?
Think about how structures support loads.
What does the term 'capacity' refer to?
It's the strongest a structure can be under load.
What is the formula for performance function?
Remember, it's about how much a structure can hold compared to what it's experiencing.
True or False: A performance function greater than 1 indicates that the structure is under capacity.
Think about the meaning of being over or under capacity.
If a structure's capacity is 500 kN but the observed demand is 600 kN, what measures could be taken to improve its reliability?
Think about both structural reinforcement and load management.
Create a scenario where the performance function shows a critical failure scenario and suggest remedies.
Consider environmental factors when thinking about structural performance.
