The modulus of elasticity (also known as the elastic modulus or Young’s modulus) is a material property that measures the stiffness of a material, defined as the ratio of stress to strain.

Stress is the internal force per unit area within a material, while strain is the deformation or change in dimension per unit length caused by stress. Advertisements

A moment is a force that causes rotation or bending in a structural member. It is typically measured in units of force multiplied by distance (e.g., pound-feet or Newton meters).

The primary types of loads on a structure are dead, live, wind, seismic, and impact loads.

Common types of beams include simply supported beams, cantilever beams, overhanging beams, fixed beams, and continuous beams.

A load-bearing wall supports the structure’s weight above it, while a partition wall serves only as a divider between spaces and does not carry any structural loads. Related Posts:

The primary types of foundations are shallow foundations (such as spread footings, strip footings, and mat foundations) and deep foundations (such as piles, drilled shafts, and caissons). Advertisements

Concrete reinforcement provides strength and ductility, allowing it to effectively carry tensile and shear stresses. Please check these top 100 Must-Know Interview Questions and Answers on Concrete Technology.

Cement is a fine powder made of limestone, clay, and other minerals, which acts as a binding agent when mixed with water. Concrete is a composite material composed of cement, aggregates (such as sand and gravel), and water. When the cement hydrates, it hardens and binds the aggregates together, forming a strong and durable material. […]
