  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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

  5. Post (structural) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_(structural)

    Crown – A post on a tie beam or collar beam carrying a crown plate. [26] Crown strut: A piece similar to a crown post but not carrying a plate. [27] Ashlar – or ashlar piece: Short post from a tie beam to a rafter near a masonry wall. [28] Purlin – A post supporting a purlin plate, may be plumb or leaning (canted).

  6. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

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

    A stiffer beam (high modulus of elasticity and/or one of higher second moment of area) creates less deflection. Mathematical methods for determining the beam forces (internal forces of the beam and the forces that are imposed on the beam support) include the "moment distribution method", the force or flexibility method and the direct stiffness ...

  7. 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

  8. Pole building framing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_building_framing

    Today, almost any low-rise structure can be quickly built using the post-frame construction method. [ 3 ] Pole barn construction was a quick and economical method of adding outbuildings on a farm as agriculture shifted to equipment-dependent and capital-intensive agriculture—necessitating shelter for tractors, harvesters, wagons and the like ...

  9. 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.
