MODULE 2 Flashcards
is a method of proportioning structural components such that the allowable strength equals or exceeds the required strength of the component under the action or the ASO load combinations.
ASD (ALLOWABLE STRENGTH DESIGN)
is a structural member that has the primary function of resisting bending moments.
BEAM
is a structural member that resist both axial force and bending moment.
BEAM-COLUMN
refers to a connection, limit state of tension fracture along one path and shear yielding or shear fracture a long another path.
BLOCK SHEAR RUPTURE
is a limit state of sudden change in the geometry or a structure or any of its elements under a critical loading condition.
BUCKLING
is a curvature fabricated into a beam or truss so as to compensate for deflection induced by loads.
CAMBER
refers to the shape manufactured by press-braking blanks sheared from sheets, cut lengths of coils or plates, or by roll forming. cold-or hot-rolled coils or sheets; both forming operations being performed at ambient room temperature, that is, without manifest addition of heat such as would be required for hot forming.
COLD-FORMED STEEL STRUCTURAL MEMBER
is the structural member that has the primary function of resisting axial force
COLUMN
is a combination of structural elements and joints used to transmit forces between two or more members.
CONNECTION
is a Joint between two overlapping connection elements in parallel planes.
LAP JOINT
is the ultimate state of large deformation of a flange under a concentrated transverse force.
LOCAL BENDING
refers to buckling of a compression element where the line junctions between elements remain straight and angles between elements do not change.
LOCAL BUCKLING
is a structural element, usually an angle or plate, attached to a member to distribute load, transfer shear or prevent buckling.
STIFFENER
refers to stress as used in this Specification means force per unit area. It is a force per unit area caused by axial force, moment, shear or torsion
STRESS
is a major principal centroidal axis of a cross section.
STRONG AXIS
is a determination or load effects on members and connections based on principles of structural mechanics.
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
refers to member, connector, connecting element or assemblage.
STRUCTURAL COMPONENT
is the maximum tension force that a member is capable of sustaining.
TENSILE STRENGTH (OF MEMBER)
is the yielding bolt occurs due to tension.
TENSILE YIELDING
refers lo bolt, limit state or rupture (fracture) due to simultaneous tension and shear force.
TENSION AND SHEAR RUPTURE
refers lo thickness of any element or section is the base steel thickness, exclusive of coatings.
THICKNESS
is a minor principal centroidal axis of a cross section.
WEAK AXIS
is the portion of the section that is joined to two flanges, or that is joined to only one flange provided it crosses the neutral axis.
WEB
refers to limit state of lateral instability of a web.
