Basics of Structural Engineering: Force,Work and Energy
I would like to discuss about Force, Work and Energy form the point of view of a structural engineer. These are the fundamental quantities and proper understanding of these terms
Structural analysis deals with understanding the behaviour of structural members when subjected to loads. Structural design completely depends on the output of structural analysis and having a strong foundation in analysis helps engineers to provide economic designs.

Beam and Column In structural engineering we give names to different structural members based on their behavior under applied load. For example: Say you have a rod of length 3
To illustrate the importance of bending moment, let’s conduct a simple demonstration. Place a ruler flat on a desk and push it downwards. You will notice that as the length
