structures

EK140

Very flexible structures with long natural periods of vibration respond in an equivalent static manner to the high frequencies of earthquake movements, and so can be designed as if loaded […]

EK106

When flexible structures are subjected to lateral forces, the resulting horizontal displacements lead to additional overturning moments because the gravity load is also displaced. Therefore, in addition to the overturning […]

EK20

Most structures are elastic bodies and the deformations under load are considered to be small so that changes in geometry are generally ignored. For this reason, when considering equilibrium the […]
