2. Eurocode 1: Actions on structures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_1:_Actions_on...

   EN 1991-1-4 gives guidance on the determination of natural wind actions for the structural design of building and civil engineering works for each of the loaded areas under consideration. This includes the whole structure or parts of the structure or elements attached to the structure, e. g. components, cladding units and their fixings, safety ...

3. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

   Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

4. Structural load - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_load

   A structural load or structural action is a mechanical load (more generally a force) applied to structural elements. [1] [2] A load causes stress, deformation, displacement or acceleration in a structure. Structural analysis, a discipline in engineering, analyzes the effects of loads on structures and structural elements.

5. Structural analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_analysis

   In the context to structural analysis, a structure refers to a body or system of connected parts used to support a load. Important examples related to Civil Engineering include buildings, bridges, and towers; and in other branches of engineering, ship and aircraft frames, tanks, pressure vessels, mechanical systems, and electrical supporting structures are important.

6. Structural engineering theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering_theory

   For example, in the case of design for fire a load case of 1.0 x Dead Load + 0.8 x Live Load may be used, as it is reasonable to assume everyone has left the building if there is a fire. In multi-story buildings it is normal to reduce the total live load depending on the number of stories being supported, as the probability of maximum load ...

7. Load path analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_path_analysis

   a): load paths based on U* index; b): von Mises stress distribution [2] In the image to the right, a structural member with a central hole is placed under load bearing stress. Figure (a) shows the U* distribution and the resultant load paths while figure (b) is the von Mises Stress distribution. As can be seen from figure (b), higher stresses ...
