Key Concepts
-
Term: Wrought Iron
Definition: A type of iron that is known for its malleability and resistance to corrosion, making it ideal for structures like the Eiffel Tower.
-
Term: Load Distribution
Definition: The way in which loads or forces are spread across different elements of a structure, impacting overall stability and safety.
-
Term: Support Systems
Definition: Frameworks within a structure designed to sustain loads and ensure stability, such as the inclined supports of the Eiffel Tower.
