TOS_Module 1 (Part 1)

This stage involves the identification of all loads that can be expected present on the structure.

• Preliminary Structural Design

• Estimation of Loads

• Structural Analysis

• Planning Phase

Which is/are the structural loadings?

• Tension Load

• Wind Load

• Dead Load

• Compression Load

Arches are Compression; Columns are _________.

These structures are composed of straight members, connected by hinged connections at their ends to form a stable structure.

• Beams

• Frames

• Cables

• Trusses

It consists of the weights of the various structural members and the weights of any objects that are permanently attached to the structure.

• Dead Load

• Earthquake Load

• Live Load

• Wind Load

Rigid frames are composed of straight members that are connected either through rigid connections or through hinged connections to form stable configurations.

• TRUE

• FALSE

This load may be caused by the weights of objects temporarily placed on a structure, moving vehicles, or natural forces.

• Dead Load

• Wind Load

• Live Load

• Earthquake Load

The following are surfaces acted by the wind except:

• Leeward

• Windward

• Side

• Roof

Classify the structure

• Frame

• Cables

• Truss

• Girders
