What type of system response is this?

State definition of sway

• The act of moving from side to side with a swinging motion when subjected to loads/forces.

• The wind stresses in buildings are due to the sway or the bending produced by strong winds acting against the surfaces of the structure

• the distance that a beam bends from its original horizontal position, when subjected to loads.

• The compressive and tensile forces above and below the neutral axis, result in a shortening (above n.a.) and lengthening (below na.) of the longitudinal fibers of a simple beam, resulting in a curvature which deflects from the original position.

What type of system response is this ?

State type of deflection

• Vertical deflection

• Horizontal defelction

• Amar deflection

• Lateral deflection
