Load
Live Load
Dead Load
Cross Sectional Area
Stress Strain Graph
Elastic Range
Plastic Range
Yield Point
Failure Point
Tensile Strength

Fulcrum
Load bearing walls and a bit of weight distribution video
EXPERIMENT
Complete the study from WestPoint Bridge Design (Unit 2) to discover the influence of tension and compression on parts of a structure (bridge) The square tubes are like columns or posts in a bridge or structure and the thin strips are like the cables or cross supports on a structure.
1. Read and answer the ten Questions.
2. Use as a reference to create the samples to be tested.
3. Follow the directions for testing the samples
Create the following Samples Create Two of each.
