bending and axial compression
1Reinforced concrete biaxial bending — Reinforced Concrete Biaxial BendingReinforced concrete biaxial bending is the stress state of a reinforced concrete element subjected to axial force and two orthogonal moments and is usually found in column design. This page is entended to give… …
2Structural engineering — is a field of engineering dealing with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering is usually considered a speciality within civil engineering, but it can also be studied in its own right. [cite… …
3high-pressure phenomena — ▪ physics Introduction changes in physical, chemical, and structural characteristics that matter undergoes when subjected to high pressure. pressure thus serves as a versatile tool in materials research, and it is especially important in… …
4wood — wood1 woodless, adj. /wood/, n. 1. the hard, fibrous substance composing most of the stem and branches of a tree or shrub, and lying beneath the bark; the xylem. 2. the trunks or main stems of trees as suitable for architectural and other… …

8Buckling — In engineering, buckling is a failure mode characterized by a sudden failure of a structural member subjected to high compressive stresses, where the actual compressive stress at the point of failure is less than the ultimate compressive stresses …
9Beam (structure) — A statically determinate beam, bending (sagging) under an evenly distributed load. A beam is a horizontal structural element that is capable of withstanding load primarily by resisting bending. The bending force induced into the material of the… …
10Cold formed steel — (CFS) is the common term for products made by rolling or pressing thin gauges of sheet steel into goods. Cold formed steel goods are created by the working of sheet steel using stamping, rolling, or presses to deform the sheet into a usable… …
