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

Supported by beams on two (2) sides.

The ratio of longer span panel (L) to shorter span panel (B) is equal or greater than 2. Thus, L/B>=2

Reinforcement is provided in only one direction.

One-Way Slab: Thickness of slab should not be less than?

One-Way Slab: Spacing of temperature bars should not be greater than?

One-Way Slab:  

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 less than?

Spacing of temperature bars should not be greater than?

What is the minimum diameter for steel bars?

What is the minimum diameter for temperature bars?

Slabs that are supported on four sides and the ratio of longer span (I), to shorter span (b) is less than 2.

Supported by beams in all four sides.

Main reinforcement is provided in both direction.

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.

Ribbed floors consisting of equally spaced ribs that is usually supported directly by columns.

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

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

Short column failure.

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.

Most commonly used footings for reinforced cement concrete columns because it is simple and most economical.

Used to support a single column.

Independent footings which are provided for each column.

Footing used for columns that are not closely space, loads on footings are less, and the safe bearing capacity of soil is generally high.

When two columns are close together, causing overlap of adjacent isolated footings.

Where soil bearing capacity is low, causing overlap of adjacent isolated footings.

Proximity of building line or existing building or sewer, adjacent to a building column.

A component of a building's foundation. It consists of two or more column footings connected by a concrete beam.

Used when soil bearing capacity is low, column loads are heavy and differential settlement for single footings are very large or much be reduced.

Any longitudinal, horizontal, structural member in a roof.

A tension member used to limit the deflection of a girt or purlin in the direction of its weak axis or to limit the sag in angle bracing.

One of a series of sloped structural members (beams) that extend from the ridge or hip to the wall plate.

Identify the type of truss.

Was designed by Albert Fink of Germany in the 1860s.

Identify the type of truss.

A type of truss that includes vertical members and diagonals that slope up towards the center.

Opposite of the Pratt truss.

Patented in 1840 by Massachusetts millwright William Howe.

Identify the type of truss.

Opposite of Howe truss.

Most efficient type of truss for under static and vertical loading.
