Permanent and imposed loads. The structural frame is designed to continuously withstand the vertical gravitational loads (self-weight, masonry walls, floor coverings, cars, furniture, people etc) and, not in a continuous but in a periodical basis, the wind and snow actions. Moreover it must always bear the “self-induced” loadings caused by temperature changes etc. Apart from the usual loads, in earthquake prone regions, the structural frame must have enough strength surplus distributed in such a way so that in the critical moment of an earthquake, to be able to respond successfully, retaining the building intact. @engrandarch 👨🎓 👩🎓 . . #loads #masonrywall #masonry #structure #structuralanalysis #load #building #permanent #imposed #humans #furniture #wall #floor #architecture #design #designer #obra #house #project #architecture #ingenieriacivil #civilengineering #civil #physical #physics #engineering #cargas #construction #construccion https://www.instagram.com/p/CEmu_xsBP0w/?igshid=dorn99dnmgyn
