Which is NOT a Standard Wood Size?
2x12
2x4
2x6
Which is NOT a type of steel product?
"W" Section (Wide Flange Beam)
"C" Channel
"HSS" (Tube Steel)
"OSB" Oriented Strand Board
Steel Disadvantage
tendency to corrode
structurally predictable
dimensional accuracy
malleable
A horizontal beam that supports other beams; a very large beam (a collector)
girder
column
decking
rebar
Steel bar used to reinforce concrete.
girder
column
decking
rebar
Which is NOT a common steel size?
W10s
W24s
W16s
W8s
A pinned connection that doesn't transfer rotational forces, is designed to transmit only the vertical load from the beam or girder to the adjoining member, only small rotations are possible between the two members, less expensive connection, used at locations where structural continuity is not needed.
Shear Connection
Moment Connection
Cross Connection
Pinned Connection
Flanges, beams, or girders are attached to adjoining member with welded connections that are as strong as the member flanges themselves, member can't rotate without rotating the other, used for joints that must be rigid or used to achieve structural continuity, transfers rotational forces
Shear Connection
Moment Connection
Cross Connection
Pinned Connection
Which is NOT a Lateral Support Option?
Moment Connections
Cross Bracing
Shear Walls
Formwork
a sheet of steel that has been corrugated to increase its stiffness, span capability primarily based on thickness (gauge) of the sheet
Metal Decking
Formwork
Girder
Tube Steel "HSS"
Joist Spacing does NOT depend on:
Load
Span capability
Height
Which is NOT a Concrete Structural Type?
Section-Active
Vector-Active
Bulk-Active
Bending-Active
Cast-in-Place Concrete
assumes the shape of the form in the position and location it will be used
"elemental" like a steel or wood system
beams, slabs and columns are cast off site and trucked in as a kit of parts
in need of lateral bracing
Which does NOT describe Precast Concrete?
it assumes the shape of the form in the position and location it will be used
"elemental" like a steel or wood system
beams, slabs and columns are cast off site and trucked in as a kit of parts
