VERIFIED ANSWERS|UPDATED TO PASS|LATEST
VERSION
loads that include people and most movable objects. an example is snow even though it is usually
handled as a separate type of load. ✔Correct answer-live loads
loads that include the structure itself and most immovable objects. ✔Correct answer-dead loads
pulling apart
this type of stress is usually evenly distributed across the structural element, making the resisting of
this type of stress very efficient. ✔Correct answer-tension
crushing or smashing together
this type of stress is usually evenly distributed across the structural element, making the resisting of
this type of stress very efficient. ✔Correct answer-compression
causing layers of a material to tend to slide relative to each other ✔Correct answer-shearing
a combination of thee other types of stress, but important enough to be treated as a type of its own.
stress is distributed non-uniformly across the member ✔Correct answer-bending
what is the most important stress in the design of beams, but the least efficient to resist structurally?
✔Correct answer-bending
when long slender elements in compression "bows" or moves out of line it is called _____.
✔Correct answer-buckling
____ resist tension only. ✔Correct answer-cables
____ resist bending but to a lesser degree than shear. they are also referred to as girders, joists, and
purlins. ✔Correct answer-beams
_____ resist compression ✔Correct answer-posts or columns
_____ resist tension and compression ✔Correct answer-trusses
_____ resist compression (maybe bending) ✔Correct answer-arches
the study of forces and thee effect of those forces on the bodies on which they act ✔Correct
answer-statics
in statics, what is an "ideal element"? ✔Correct answer-structural elements that are weightless
and infinitely stiff
_____ has to do with the deformation and the internal effects caused by forces. ✔Correct answer-
strength of materials
