The design of structures must take into account factors such as temperature changes and seismic activity from "summary" of Structures by J. E. Gordon
When designing structures, engineers must consider various factors that can impact the stability and integrity of the building. One crucial consideration is the effect of temperature changes on the materials used in construction. As temperatures fluctuate, materials can expand and contract, potentially leading to structural failures if not properly accounted for in the design. For example, metal structures may experience thermal expansion, causing joints to weaken or crack if not adequately supported. ...
