A force that will balance one or more unbalanced forces.

The ability of a deformed material body to return to its original shape and size when the forces causing the deformation are removed.

Materials having the same composition at any point.

Material property which enables it to undergo large permanent strains before failure

Forces generated by a body in motion

Within elastic range, the slope of the straight line portion of the stress- strain curve.

The ratio of lateral strain to longitudinal strain

Within the proportional limit, stress is directly proportional to strain

Energy by virtue of velocity

Which of the following forces determines whether a body will be at rest or in motion?

Which of the following deals with the forces at rest?

The ability of the material to deform under tensile stress

The ability of the material to absorb energy when it is deformed elastically and release that energy upon unloading.

The ability of the material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing.

Materials having the same strength at any point.

A time dependent prestress loss in pretensioned concrete

Tendons are stressed before concrete is poured.

Tendons are stressed after concrete has hardened

The combined effect of external forces acting on a body.

The property of material to undergo large deformation before failure.

Strain in a direction at right angles to the direction of the applied force.

The forces that do not meet at a point.

This is the point at which the material begins to deform plastically. Beyond this point, even if the stress is removed, the material will have a permanent deformation.

Which of the following forms is the basis of rigid bodies and strength of materials?

The concentration of shear stress in the vicinity of the connection.

The change in length per unit of length in a linear dimension of a body.

A section that is capable of developing its plastic moment capacity before any local buckling occurs.

It is a time-dependent deformation due to sustained load.

The weakening of a material by repeated loads.

It is the limit of stress beyond which the strain is not wholly recovered.

The greatest stress that a material can sustain without any deviation from proportionality of stress to strain.

It is the tendency of a material to fracture by means of progressive brittle cracking under repeated alternating or cyclic stresses of an intensity considerably below the normal strength.

The ability of a material to remain deformed after the load which is causing the deformation has been removed. It is a very important property when a material needs to be shaped by bending.

When a force is applied to a structure, there is a displacement in the direction of the force; it is the ratio of the force divided by the displacement.

Materials which does not show large deformation before fracture.

Materials with uniformity of properties in all directions; having identical values of a property in all crystallographic directions.

Materials having properties that vary according to the direction of measurement; exhibiting different values of a property in different crystallographic directions.

The maximum stress a material withstands when subjected to an applied load

When a metal is strained beyond yield point, an increasing stress is required to produce additional plastic deformation and the metal apparently becomes stronger and more difficult to deform.

It is a single force which produces the same effect as produced by all the given forces acting on a body

The condition existing when the force system acting on a body has a resultant force couple system equal to zero.

It refers to an activity involving a force and movement in the direction of the force.

It can be defined as "mass in motion" it depends upon the variables mass and velocity.

It is defined as the means by which the response motion of a structural system is reduced as a result of energy loss.

It is defined as the difference in lateral deflection between two adjacent stories.

It describes the severity of an earthquake in terms of its effects on the earth's surface and on humans and their structures.

It is a measure of the energy released during an earthquake.

It refers to a stress at which the material begins to deform plastically.

These have properties that differ along three mutually-orthogonal two fold axes of rotational symmetry.
