Why is dead load always included in design? It is permanent and always present throughout the life of the structure
Why does live load vary between buildings? It depends on how the building is used (occupancy and activity)
How do you design between Lr and snow load? Compare both and use the larger load since they don't act together
Why is wind load unpredictable? It varies with speed, direction, terrain, and building height
Why does wind increase with height? There is less ground friction, allowing wind speed to increase
Why is suction dangerous for roofs? It creates uplift forces that can pull the roof off
Why do leeward sides have negative pressure? Airflow separates and creates suction behind the structure
Why is wind pressure proportional to V²? It is based on kinetic energy, which depends on velocity squared
When does wind control design? In tall, lightweight structures with large, exposed areas
Why must load path be continuous? To ensure loads transfer safely to the foundation
