Structural Analysis exam 1 questions with well verified
answers
Structure - answer a structure is a solid body that supports loads
Skeletal Structure - answer structures composed of one-dimensional members
Beam - answer a skeletal structure where all members are collinear and the loads are
transverse, meaning that the loads act in the direction perpendicular to the members
truss - answer A skeletal structure where all members are hinge-connected to each other
and the supports and the loads consist of point forces only at the joints
frame - answer Skeletal structures which do not qualify as trusses or beams- A frame is a
structure composed of one-dimension almembers
2 types of connections - answer hinge & rigid
3 types of supports - answer Fixed, pin, and roller
Load - answer are the stimuli that cause stresses and strains throughout a stucture
10 types of loads - answer Gravity load, contact load,dead load, live load, fluid load,
support displacement, thermal loads, prestrain loads, static loads, dynamic loads
5 types of idealized loads - answer point force loads, point moment loads, uniform loads,
distributed loads, triangular loads
