    Each type of design is although, unique in its own way, fulfills the desired goal that the Truss Brides are made for. The purpose of this experiment is to research various bridges and build a similar one that gave the students the highest inspiration. For one case in particular, the bridge design was in-spired by the Pratt Bridge and almost every height, width, and length met the requirements ex-cept for the length on the bottom part of the bridge, it exceeded the maximum height that was asked. Moreover the bridge held a total of 20 pounds before one of the top sticks snapped. Alt-hough it performed a decent job, the bridge could have held more weight if there were more di-agonals to provide more support so the bridge wouldn't break. Furthermore, this bridge fulfilled its goal and held a large amount of weight for such a small bridge. These bridges are also very significant for this planet because it is very resourceful and effective, as well as…

    AM 317 Experiment 1

    Deflections of a beam are important to be able predict the amount of deflection for a given loading situation. This experiment addresses determining the yield point for a material to fail, so the stress in the material does not have to reach to that point. This is where understanding beam deflection becomes a useful tool. This experiment is using beam deflection theory to evaluate and compare observed deflection per load values to theoretical values. Beam deflection experiment done by four parts. Part 1 -Simple Supported Bean, part 2-Cantilever Beam, part 3-The Principle of Superposition, and Part 4-Maxwell’s Reciprocity Theorem. For part 1 and 2 beam dimensions were recorded and are moment of inertia (I) was calculated using the following formula I=bh3/12.for part1, maximum permissible loads for mid-span and quarter-span were calculated. For part 2 maximum permissible loads for mid-span and end of the cantilever beam were calculated. For both parts different loads were applied and deflections were recorded. After calculating average modulus of elasticity for simple supported beam, which was approximately (-27.6*10^6 psi), it was compared to modulus of elasticity chart. The result indicates that the beam simple supported beam was made of Wrought iron. For cantilever beam, average modulus of elasticity were calculated, which was approximately (9148056.3), and compared with young’s modulus chart .the result indicate that cantilever beam was made of Aluminum. Part 3 reference point was chosen, single concentrated load at other point was applied and deflection was recorded at reference point. Same procedure was applied at another point on the beam and deflection was recorded at reference point. Finally, both loads were applied and deflection was recorded at the…

    “Beams are long straight members that are subjected to loads perpendicular to their longitudinal axis and are classified according to the way they are supported”[1]. When a beam is subjected to an external load there are unseen internal forces within the beam that one must be aware of when implementing it into any design or structure. These internal forces create stress and strain that could result in failure or deformation. This lab looked at how an aluminum cantilevered beam performed under symmetric and unsymmetrical bending as well as the stresses and strains developed as a result.…

    On January 18, 1978, just four years after completion, the space frame roof of the Hartford Civic Center came crashing down 83 feet to the floor after a snowstorm. The majority of the blame for this disaster was placed squarely on the shoulders of the design engineers and architects who overlooked vital miscalculations and failed to fix design flaws when they started to appear.

    These were usually non-seismically engineered residential structures, in which the walls were not designed to resist the significant lateral loads created by the heavy tile roofs during shaking (EQE). The more engineered building structures, particularly reinforced concrete and some steel reinforced concrete (SRC) construction will be examined in this report. There was also damage to steel structures; they generally performed better due to their flexibility, but failure and collapse of steel buildings coincided with lack of code development as will be discussed regarding concrete buildings.…

    There is a very high demand in the construction industry to provide better value buildings by improved quality and performance. This has arisen because of the need of fast construction for early return of investment. Pre-fabricated modular units can provide these advantages. Modular construction uses units that have been pre-engineered in a factory ready to install on-site. Light steel framing is used as the internal framework of the units because it is light weight, durable and accurate. Once the framing is complete it is possible to attach a range of different cladding and finishes.…
