  2. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  3. Macaulay's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaulay's_method

    Simply supported beam with a single eccentric concentrated load. An illustration of the Macaulay method considers a simply supported beam with a single eccentric concentrated load as shown in the adjacent figure. The first step is to find . The reactions at the supports A and C are determined from the balance of forces and moments as

  4. Timber framing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_framing

    This post construction in German is called Geschossbauweise or Ständerbauweise. It is somewhat similar to balloon framing method common in North America until the middle of the 20th century. In the advanced manner, called frame construction, each story is constructed like a case, and the whole building is constructed like a pile of such cases.

  5. Timber roof truss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_roof_truss

    [6] [a] Sometimes a Palladian truss is defined as a compound truss with a queen post and king post truss in the same assembly. [7] The queen post truss and the king post truss may be combined, by using the straining beam of the queen post truss as the tie beam for a king post truss above. [8] Such combinations are known as compound trusses.

  6. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_(structure)

    Historically a beam is a squared timber, but may also be made of metal, stone, or a combination of wood and metal [1] such as a flitch beam.Beams primarily carry vertical gravitational forces, but they are also used to carry horizontal loads such as those due to earthquake or wind, or in tension to resist rafter thrust or compression (collar beam).

  7. Moment-area theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment-Area_Theorem

    If there are mixed with distributed loads and concentrated, the moment diagram (M/EI) will results parabolic curves, cubic, etc. Then, assume and draw the deflection shape of the structure by looking at M/EI diagram. Find the rotations, change of slopes and deflections of the structure by using the geometric mathematics.

  8. Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain - Wikipedia

    It also features expanded tables and cases, improved notations and figures within the tables, consistent table and equation numbering, and verification of correction factors. The formulas are organized into tables in a hierarchical format: chapter, table, case, subcase, and each case and subcase is accompanied by diagrams.

  9. Post and beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_and_beam

    Post and beam is a general term for building with heavy timbers. More specific types of post and beam framing are: Timber framing, an ancient traditional method of building using wooden joinery held together with pegs, wedges and rarely iron straps; Post and lintel, a simple form of framing with lintels resting on top of posts
