conditions To know the behavior of any frame it is advisable to know its different deflected shapes under different loading condition‚ which can be obtained by vertical work energy method analytically. Portal structures similar to the end portals of bridge have as their primary purpose‚ the transfer of horizontal loads applied at their top to their foundations. Clearance requirements usually lead to the use of statically indeterminate structure layout for portals‚ and approximate solutions are often

The short story “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” by Ambrose Bierce is a story divided into three parts. In the first part we meet a man about to be hung by the Union army in the time of the Civil War. He is being hung for an unknown reason other than opposing the Union army. In the second section we learn about the successful planter named Peyton Farquhar. Peyton wants to help the confederacy; he is unable to join the Confederate Army. A Union spy comes and tells him of a way he can sabotage the

MM2MS3 Asymmetrical Bending Laboratory Report Date of Laboratory: Name of Student: Student ID: Summary Asymmetrical bending is bending couples acting in a plane of symmetric. If loads do not act in plane of symmetry‚ this leads to deflection in a plane perpendicular to the loading plane as well as in the loading plane. This coupling does not occur if the loading is in principal plane. The experiment was conducted to investigate the deflections of the tip of a cantilever when loaded transversely
