1. A structural element that extends horizontally and is supported on only one end.
2. Refers to loads that do, or can, change over time, such as people walking around a building
(occupancy) or movable objects such as furniture.
3. A structure's static, non-moving weight or any permanent components that form an integral
part of it, including self-weight.
4. A type of beam stress produced by distribution of internal forces and moments within the
beam's cross-section as it undergoes deformation.
5. The movement or displacement of a beam or node from its original position due to vertical load.
6. A type of stress in beams that acts coplanar with a given cross-section of the material.
7. A type of beam that is rigidly supported at both ends.
8. The type of beam that supports the beams and provides the main horizontal support for the
structure.
9. A structural element that primarily resists the applied loads from the floor system.
10. A rotational force that occurs when a force is applied perpendicularly to a point at a given
distance away from that point.
11. Type of beams that rest on two supports and is free to move horizontally.
12. A type of steel structural materials that have a wider flange in which the beam can carry more
weight.
13. A type of steel structural material that has a narrow flange.
14. A horizontal structural member that is closely space, and often between beams.
15. Graphs which show the internal shear and bending moment plotted along the length of the
beam.

PART 2: Solve the following.

1. A beam 100 mm wide is to be loaded with 3 kN concentrated loads spaced uniformly at 0.40 m
on centers throughout the 5 m span. The following data are given: (15 points)
Allowable bending stress = 24 MPa
Allowable shear stress = 1.24 MPa
Allowable deflection = 1/240 of span
Modulus of elasticity = 18,600 MPa
Weight of wood = 8 kN/m3

a. Find the depth d considering bending stress only.

b. Determine the depth d considering shear stress only.
c. Calculate the depth d considering deflection only.
