Structures

1. Types

   • Mass structures
   • Truss structures
   • Frame structures
   • Suspended structures

2. Conditions for a strong structure

   • Rigidity
   • Equilibrium
   • Stability

3. Types of stress

   • Compression
   • Tension
   • Bending
   • Torsion
   • Shear

4. Strengtheing elements

   • It needs to be strong
   • Making them more stable
   • Making them more rigid

5. Elements that increase stabillity

   • Is stable
   • Centre of gravity

6. Elements that increase rigidity

   • Trussing
   • Brace
   • Stay cables
   • Sections
