Across
- 3. The condition where a structure has more constraints than required for equilibrium.
- 4. The lateral displacement of a rigid frame under horizontal loads.
- 6. A localized zone in a structure where large rotations occur at a constant moment.
- 8. The factor used to divide an applied moment among members meeting at a joint.
- 10. The ratio of the plastic moment to the yield moment of a section.
- 11. A type of frame where joints are considered fixed against rotation until released.
- 13. The term for vertical movement of a support that induces internal stresses.
- 14. The ratio of the moment at the far end to the moment applied at the near end.
Down
- 1. Method of analysis where "redundant forces" are the primary unknowns.
- 2. The property of a member to rotate without resisting any further moment in plastic theory.
- 4. A simplified frame used to analyze a single floor of a multi-storey building.
- 5. The number of independent joint displacements in a structure.
- 7. In matrix analysis, the matrix that transforms local forces into global ones.
- 9. The stage where a structure becomes unstable and turns into a mechanism.
- 12. The moments produced at the ends of a member when its joints are fully restrained.
