STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS Flashcards
191.When external loads are applied on a member, it results to
a.Generation of support reactions c. Deformation of the member
b.Development of internal stresses in the member
d. All of the above
AOTA
192.It’s a structural element characterized by having lengths way greater than their cross
sections
LINE ELEMENTS
193.It’s a structural element characterized by having their area is way larger than their thickness.
SPATIAL ELEMENTS
194.Typical examples of axial members in compressions.
a.Columns
c. Some truss members
b.Some braces d. All of the above
AOTA
195.It is a beam that carries smaller beams.
GIRDER
196.It is a planar structural element composed of individual straight members connected together so as to form a rigid configuration. The joints are assumed to be pin-connected.
TRUSS
197.It is a planar structural element composed of individual straight members connected
together so as to form a rigid configuration. The joints are assumed to be fixed-connected.
FRAME
198.It is a structural element that transmits forces from one member to another
SUPPORTS AND JOINTS
199.It is a type of structural support that does not allow rotation as well as translation.
FIXED SUPPORT
200.It is a type of structural support that does not allow translation in both axis but allows rotation.
PIN SUPPORT
201.It is a type of structural support that does not allow translation in one axis only but allows rotation.
ROLLER SUPPORT
202.The use of internal hinge
reduces the degree of static indeterminacy
203.When a truss is loaded at the member and at the joints, the member will experience
axial and flexural loadings
204.In analyzing or designing a truss, the joints of a truss are assumed to be
internal hinge
- The degree of freedom for fixed support is
