Primary Loads are either Dead or Live.
Dead: Act permanently and are stationary. Dead loads are the self weight of the structural members. e.g concrete acts at 24 kN/m3.
Live: Not permanent and can change in magnitude. Eg. Furniture, People, Cars. Live loads also include environmental loads caused by the weather.

What molecule contain carbon as the primary structural atom?
Organic.
What does a structural frame look like?
The Structural Frame in painting is the elements of design. They include size, space, tone, texture, colour, shapes, form, lines, balance and rhythm.
What are the primary uses for lipids in the cell?
The function of lipids is cells is signaling, and acting as structural components of cell membranes.
How does the structure of graphite account for the design of graphite electrodes?
The structure of graphite accounts for the design of graphite electrodes in the sense that the tight structural composition of graphite makes it easy for them to be arranged in electrodes.
Why is the phospholipid molecule so appropriate as the primary structural component of plasma membranes?
have a water-soluble part and a water-insoluble part
How do you calculate structural loads?
How do you calculate structural loads?
What is the actual job of a structural engineer?
The job of a structural engineer is to deal with the analysis and design of the structurre. They choose the materials that must support the loads and resist tension and compression. The structure must be able to withstand the forces, weather and some natural disasters.
Where can one find information on structural design?
Structural design, usually called structural engineering, is a branch of engineering that focuses on analyzing and designing structures for loads. There is a very informative book on this subject, by Jacques Heyman, entitled 'The Science of Structural Engineering'.
What is the explanation for the aims of structural design?
The aim of structural design is to ensure that a building or structure can safely carry its own weight and any additional loads placed upon it, such as people, furniture, or environmental forces like wind and earthquakes. Structural design also aims to optimize the use of materials and minimize costs while meeting performance and safety requirements. Ultimately, the goal is to create a structurally sound and efficient design that meets the needs of the building or structure.

What is an LFRD K Series Bar Joist?
Let me subdivide the answer in 3 parts. Bar Joist is a structural member composed of steel bars or angles. It is a secondary strucutral member (depends on a primary member) which is placed over girders, steel beams or concrete beams. They are tipically separated from 30" to 4 feet and in some cases more from one another. depending on the strength of the decking and the loads imposed. Over the Joist, the decking is installed. K Series - Is a designation of a "family" of joists on the geometry of how they are constructed. The SJI or Steel Joist Institute has a book that explains more. LRFD - Load Resistance Factor Design - Is a structural design "philosophy" that requires the structural engineer to factor loads applied (factor up / increase loads) AND resistance (factor down / reduce strength).
