C |

Core of the cross-sectionis the central part of the cross-section, in which or at its limit, the application of compressive force, causes only compressive stresses at all points of the cross-section | |
D |
---|
Deflection is measured from the original neutral surface to the neutral surface of the deformed beam | |
Durabilityis the property of the
structure to save its strength, stiffness and stability during the exploitation
time | |
E |

Elasticity is the
ability of a body to resist a distorting influence and to return to its
original size and shape, when that influence or force is removed. | |
Euler Buckling Load
When a column is loaded
axially in compression, it is possible for it to
become unstable before the material reaches its yield
point. This load is termed the 'buckling load'
or often the 'Euler buckling load' and is described
by Pcr = pi2 * E I / L2.

F |
---|
Factor Of Safetyis the ratio of the breaking strength of the material to the load imposed upon it, under usual conditions. | |
First moment of an element of area is given bу the product of the area of the element and the perpendicular
distance between the element and the axis | |
G |
---|
Gage Lengthis the initial distance
between two points that a measurement is being taken.
As the test proceeds, this distance will change but
the original distance will always be the same and
this is what is used when computing strain.

Hooke's LawWhen the applied force is
proportional to the deflection, a material is said
to obey Hooke's law. There is a linear relationship
between the force and displacement and thus, linear
elastic materials obey this law. | |
