STRUCTURE

STRUCTURE

1. is

   • The set of elements of an objet or body that support external actions so that the object or body doesn´t deform or break
     • and whose
       • functions
         • are
           • Bear weights
           • Keeping fit
           • Resist external forces
             • also called
               • loads
                 • That cause the appearance of
                   • Internal tensions
                     • called
                       • efforts
                         • which can be several
                           • tipes
                             • Compression (smash)
                             • Cutting or shearing (cut)
                             • Bending (fold)
                             • Torsion (turn, twist)
                             • Tension (stretch)
                     • which can be several
           • Serves as protection

2. They are subject to

   • forces
     • which are defined as
       • Anything that can deform a body or make it move or stop
     • two tipes
       • Fixed or permanent loads
         • These don´t change over time
       • Variable loads
         • These sometimes affect the object and sometimes they don´t
     • externals
       • called
         • loads

3. must comply with a series of

   • Properties
     • Stability (don´t change position)
       • for what we can
         • place braces
         • embed it in the ground
         • increase the surface of the base
         • lower the center of gravity
     • Rigid (don´t deform)
       • for which we turn to the
         • triangulation
     • Resistance (don't break)
       • which depends on
         • material
           • from his
             • tipe
             • form
             • amount

4. are made up of

   • Structural elements
     • for example
       • lintels
       • foundations
       • pillars
       • columns
       • beams
       • joists
       • shoes
       • bows
       • suspenders
       • flying buttress
       • stronghold
       • profiles
       • vault
       • dome

5. can be classified according to their

   • origin
     • in
       • naturals
         • originally
           • animal
           • vegetable
           • geological
       • artificials (created by man)
         • that can be clasified in
           • others
             • pneumatic
             • geodesic
           • massive or lintel structures
           • vaulted structures
           • hanging structures
           • lamellar structures
           • triangle structures
           • half-timbered structures
