A force that a building or structure needs to be able to resist. It causes stresses and deformations to a structure.
(a)
Structural loads of a constant magnitude over time. They include the self-weight of structural members, as well as fixtures that are permanently attached to the structure.
dead load
live load
undead load
unalive load
Refers to the transient or moving loads that structures experience due to human occupancy, furniture, vehicles, and other temporary factors.
dead load
live load
undead load
unalive load
A term used to describe structural framing that is proportioned to have strength and stiffness as required for gravity loads, but is not considered as part of the lateral-force-resisting system.
(a)
A fundamental force in construction, it determines the stability and safety of structures by holding them in place and exerting forces on them over time.
(a)
The average gravitational pull of the Earth
9.8 m/s2
8.87 m/s2
10.44 m/s2
11.2 m/s2
A specifically designed structure as part of a building that resists against lateral loads such as wind or seismic.
(a)
A structural system designed to resist wind and earthquake forces. Members in a braced frame are not allowed to sway laterally.
Braced frame
Moment frame
Shear wall
Gravity framing
A structural system designed to resist storey drift.
Braced frame
Moment frame
Shear wall
Gravity framing
A frame in which members and joints resist lateral forces by flexure as well as along the axis of the members.
Braced frame
Moment frame
Shear wall
Gravity framing
Load-bearing systems in which the beams have the ability to perform the shear zone of the beam-column joints to a limited amount of non-linear deformation under earthquake effects.
Intermediate moment frames (IMF)
Ordinary moment frames (OMF)
Special moment frames (SMF)
This load-bearing system prefers steel (2% carbon).
Intermediate moment frames (IMF)
Ordinary moment frames (OMF)
Special moment frames (SMF)
This load-bearing system is used in wind regions, where a stiff, non-yielding frame is desired (less wind or seismic load).
Intermediate moment frames (IMF)
Ordinary moment frames (OMF)
Special moment frames (SMF)
This load-bearing system prefers cast iron (2.1% to 4% carbon).
Intermediate moment frames (IMF)
Ordinary moment frames (OMF)
Special moment frames (SMF)
This load-bearing system is typically used in seismic regions where more ductility is needed.
Intermediate moment frames (IMF)
Ordinary moment frames (OMF)
Special moment frames (SMF)
This load-bearing system prefers wrought iron (< 2% carbon).

Force majeure, “greater force”, or an act of God
(a)
Exerts lateral forces on the building's exterior walls, which can induce structural stress and movement. It depends on factors such as building's height and shape.
wind loads
earthquake loads
tsunami loads
load combination
Seismic damage in structures is caused either by lack of sufficient strength or lack of inelastic
deformability.
wind loads
earthquake loads
tsunami loads
load combination
The phenomenon in which vortices are continuously released downstream, with each vortex having opposite rotation from the previous one (depending on the size and shape of the body).
(a)
Most damage is caused by flooding, wave impacts, strong currents, erosion, and debris. The flow of water around/through the buildings that obstruct/resist the high-velocity water flow.
wind loads
earthquake loads
tsunami loads
load combination
If these are not considered during the design process, the structure may not be able to withstand the real loads (may fail, collapse, or be damaged).
wind loads
earthquake loads
tsunami loads
load combinations
The push or pull on an object with mass causes it to change its velocity. It is capable of changing a body's state of rest or motion, and has a magnitude and direction.
(a)
A force per unit length or force per unit area depicted with a series of force vectors joined together at the top; force spread out over a length, area, or volume.
(a)
A part of a building or structure that provides the necessary stiffness and strength in order to resist the internal forces and guide them safely to the ground.
structural support
architectural support
plumbing support
electrical support
A process in which an actual structure and the loads acting on it are replaced by simpler models for the purpose of analysis.
structural idealization
mechanical formation
structural analysis
architectural conceptualization
A graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition.
(a)
Conditions for equilibrium require that the sum of all external forces acting on the body is zero (first condition of equilibrium), and the sum of all external torques from external forces is zero (second condition of equilibrium).
True
False
