Question 1

What is the primary difference between dead loads and live loads?

  • Dead loads are static
  • while live loads are dynamic.
  • Both are static.
  • Live loads cause structural failure.

💡 Hint: Think about what stays the same versus what changes.

Question 2

True or False: Load intensity is the load spread over the entire structure.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how load is measured.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A contractor is designing a new high-rise building. They need to account for dead loads of the building materials totaling 500,000 N. If the live loads are expected to reach 200,000 N at maximum capacity, what steps should the contractor take to ensure safety against these loads?

💡 Hint: Think about what calculations and designs are necessary.

Question 2

An engineer has designed a bridge to support a total load of 1,500,000 N. The bridge must withstand dynamic live loads that can vary. What considerations should be made for live loads compared to dead loads?

💡 Hint: Reflect on the differences between static and dynamic forces on structures.
