Construction Project Design and Structural Systems Quiz

• The three parts of a construction project are the design, construction, and use of the structure.
• The design of the structure is difficult to do in a global way, so we are going to try to take a photo of the whole thing.
• When we build a concrete building, we need a structural system that has a design in a project, we are using an engineered system and anchoring to transmit loads between different sections, and we find a constructor who is responsible for the construction costs and the project's deadlines, not just technical issues.
• Within the construction process, the design of each section is related to the load bearing capacity of the section above it.
• There is a major factor involved in the design of a structure, and that is that the structure is designed to absorb the load of service that will be applied to it once it is completed, during construction the load is not present because the flooring, wallboard, and building are not in use.
• The key fact in the design of a structure is that the construction process must be considered when designing the structure.
• The design of the structure is based on the effects of the construction process on the structure.
• The structural design process includes the determination of loads and stresses transmitted through a structure.
• The design process for a structure with multiple levels will take into account the loads and stresses transmitted through the structure.
• The design process for a structure with cimbras will use a specific software to calculate the loads and stresses transmitted through the structure.
• The load and stress calculations will be based on a model of the structure, not the structure itself.

Test your knowledge about the design process and structural systems in construction projects. Explore concepts such as load bearing capacity, engineered systems, and the impact of construction on structure design.
