Let's take a couple of moments to review what we've learned about load-bearing walls. In a structure, a load-bearing wall is a wall which supports the weight of the building, with the load being the weight being transferred down a structure. Load-bearing walls tend to be parallel to ...

Overturn− Overturn can be an effect of an external force on a load-bearing structure such as a bridge or a wall. Overturn results in the collapse of a structure.Differences Between Internal and External Forces External Forces Examples Lesson Summary Register to view this lesson Are you a stu...
In the majority of cases of diagnostic load tests presented in the literature, the experimental results (deflections, strains, etc) are very close or lower than the predicted ones and for this reason, such tests are expected to validate the existing structure. However, in the cases presented ...

Truss. A truss bridge is a bridge that has a truss as its load-bearing superstructure. A truss bridge has components arranged in a series of triangular units. Cantilever. These are horizontal beams supported on only one end. Most cantilever bridges employ two continuous spans that meet in the...

An arch is a load-bearing structure formed from two posts joined by a curved top. A vault is like an arch, only if that arch were extended depth-wise into space to form a tunnel.Barrel Vault Definition A vault is an arched ceiling or roof of a building, typically constructed from stone...
New developments in construction engineering during the Gothic era, however, eased up the need for heavy load-bearing walls and columns, with other elements like external buttressing providing support from the outside of the structure. Walls were subsequently thinner, allowing for more open interiors...
fromcommon stockunder this section. Preferred stock is assigned an arbitrary par value (as is common stock, in some cases) that has no bearing on the market value of the shares. The common stock and preferred stock accounts are calculated by multiplying the par value by the number of shares...
