Structural Analysis and Mechanics
92 resources created by 71 users
This Structural Analysis and Mechanics page on GoConqr gathers community-made quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes, from shear force and bending moments to trusses, columns and load paths. It's built for university students practising beam, truss and load problems, and for teachers after ready-made material, with school students dipping in only occasionally. There are over 80 resources here, including more than 40 mind maps, more than 20 flashcards sets and decks and 7 quizzes, mostly at university level. Pick a topic, try a quiz, then make your own maps.

About Structural Analysis and Mechanics
GoConqr OriginalWhat this unit covers
This unit sits in the Structural Engineering strand of Civil engineering and construction. Its resources follow the usual path of a structures course: loads, internal forces, then deflections and analysis methods.
- Loads: the Load Combinations and Load Path Quiz asks about dead load, which comes from the weight of permanent parts such as beams, floor slabs and columns. Mind maps on types of loads, loading and wind engineering sit alongside it.
- Internal forces: the Internal forces mind map separates axial force, shear force and bending moment. The Shear Force & Bending Moments notes explain how beams carry lateral loads to their supports.
- Deflection and indeterminate structures: the Moment-area theorem notes and the Mechanics of Materials & Structures mind map reach slope-deflection and moment distribution.
Where to start
Begin with vocabulary. The PBS definitions flashcards cover stress, strain, shear force, stability, eccentricity and more. Then open the ENG1001 mind map for a broad view of loads, structural forms and load path.
A sensible order
- Learn the terms with PBS definitions.
- Read the notes on shear force and bending moments, and the Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagrams in Beams slides.
- Work through the Trusses flashcards, which list the assumptions: smooth pins, joints at the ends only, and loads applied at joints.
- Move on to Theory of Columns and the moment-area notes.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first to see how the ideas connect. Then take a quiz and note which questions you missed. Go back to the matching branch of the map and the related flashcards. The Superposition Beams quiz suits this after the beam notes. The NCC Vol 1 quiz is a different kind of check, built around building code requirements.
Make it your own
Teachers can pick ready-made material for a class. Students can pick one topic today, try its quiz, and then build a map or deck of their own.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the PBS definitions flashcards if the terms are new to you. They cover stress, strain, shear force, stability, bending moment and eccentricity. If you already know the vocabulary, try the Load Combinations and Load Path Quiz to see how well you follow loads through a structure.
What do the mind maps on this page cover?
There are over 40 of them. They cover internal forces, beams, columns, types of loads, wind engineering, structural dynamics and structural analysis types. Some go further, such as moment-curvature analysis and retrofit of existing structures. The Mechanics of Materials & Structures map covers moment distribution and slope-deflection.
Are these resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Who are these resources aimed at?
Most are at university level, so they suit university students working on beams, trusses and columns. Teachers can use them as ready-made material. A smaller share is at secondary level, so school students may find a few of the simpler maps and decks useful.
Is there anything on trusses and beams specifically?
Yes. There are flashcard decks on Trusses, Truss Shapes, Beams w/Gravity Load, Frames w/Lateral Loads, Fixed End Moments of Restrained Beams and Methods of Superposition. There is also the Superposition Beams quiz and slides on shear force and bending moment diagrams.
What if I can't find the topic I need?
Try nearby topics first, such as the loading maps or the internal forces notes. If the gap remains, you can make your own mind map, flashcards or notes on it. The community built everything here, so your own resources fit in naturally.
