Usually expressed in terms of its deflection from its original unloaded position

A bar subject to forces or couples that lie in a plane containing the longitudinal section of the bar

The method that dictates the types of reaction forces from the supporting members

A projecting beam supported at only one end fixed

A beam resisting on simple supports at both ends which are free to rotate and have no moment resistance

A simple beam extending beyond one of its supports. The overhanging reduces the positive moment at mid-span while developing a negative moment at the base of the cantilever over the support

A beam which is simply supported at one end and fixed at the other end

A beam extending over more than two supports in order to develop greater rigidity and smaller moments than a series of simple beams having similar spans and loading

A graphic representation of the variation in magnitude of the external shears present in a structure

A graphic representation of the variation in magnitude of the bending moment present in a structure

A net resultant of shear fumes that acts vertically upward on the left part of the structure being considered

A net resultant of shear fumes that acts vertically downward on the left part of the structure being considered

A bending moment that produces moment that produces a concave curvature at a section of a structure

A bending moment that produces moment that produces a convex curvature at a section of a structure

A point at which a structure changes curvature on convex to concave or vise versa as it deflects under a transverse load

A slight convex curvature intentionally built into beam, girder, or truss to compensate for an anticipated deflection

A type of slab where it is supported on two opposite side only thus structural action is only at one direction

Thickness of slab should not be less than?

Spacing of temperature bars should not be greater than?

If the slab is permanently exposed to the ground, minimum concrete cover is ______ clear.

Parallel to the shorter side

Parallel to the longer side

Spacing of main bars should not be greater than?

Spacing of main bars should not be lesser than?

A type of slab where slabs that are supported on four sides and the ratio of longer span (l) to shorter span (b) is less than 2

In this type of slab, loads will be carried in both directions. Main reinforcement is provided in both direction.

Supported by beams in all four sides

A type of slab supported directly by concrete columns without the use of beams

The use of ___________ in flat slabs increase the shear strength of slab and reduce the moment in the slab by reducing the clear or effective span

The use of ___________ in flat slabs increase the shear strength of slab, increase negative moment capacity of slab, and stiffen the slab and hence reduce deflection

A type of slab that are either one-way or two-way system

A column is considered to be a ___________ when the ratio of its effective length to its least lateral dimension does not exceed 12

Short column failure

If the ratio of the effective length to its least lateral dimension exceeds 12, it is a ____________.

The distance between points of zero moment when the column is deflected in its fundamental elastic buckling mode

The free-body diagram of any joint is a concurrent force system in which the summation of moment will be of no help.

In this method, we cut the truss into two sections by passing a cutting plane through the members whose internal forces we wish to determine.
