A "load-bearing" wall is typically defined as a wall supporting any vertical load in addition to its own weight. A shear wall transfers lateral loads from a roof, ceiling or floor diaphragm to a foundation or other element. Although a shear wall might not carry gravity loads from roof or floor forces, it can still be considered load-bearing as the lateral forces induce a rotational, or overturning moment in-plane with the wall, which results in vertical reactions at the boundaries of the wall. These forces are in addition to the shear, or sliding forces induced in the wall. {Building plans examiner response}

What is the difference between load bearing and non load bearing partition walls?
The question answers itself. Load bearing are holding something up. The second floor or the roof. They usually run in the opposite direction of the peak of the roof. Any wall may be load bearing, you just have to look and see what is on top of it. A non load bearing wall is just holding itself and can usually be removed without causing any problem.
Difference between load bearing and non-load bearing walls?
Non-load-bearing walls support only themselves; they are interior partition walls. They have a single top plate. While non-load-bearing walls might run perpendicular to floor and ceiling joists, they will not be aligned above support beams. As the name implies, load-bearing walls carry the structural weight of your home. Load-bearing walls in platform-frame homes will have double top plates. That is, two layers of framing lumber. Note: all exterior walls are load bearing; I got this from another site.
What is Load-bearing?
Load Bearing - something that bears a load. Like a load bearing wall in a house. The wall is holding something up like the roof, another floor, etc.
What is difference between impact load and sudden load?
sudden load differ from impact load by the velocity of loading
Difference between steel and rcc structure?
Steel uses I shape that bear more shear load, that is why it is typically used for high buildings, while concrete is used for small building due to the low shear force it can bear. RCC will need more area as the number of floors get higher, the steel structure don't.
What is the difference between shear stress and bearing stress?
Sear stress are forces applied in opposition, producing a shearing or tearing force. Bearing stress is a load placed in one direction, such as the weight of a building bearing on the foundation.
What does it tell us about how shear force varies due to an increase load?
As the load increases, the shear force typically also increases. Shear force is the force that acts parallel to a material's cross-section, causing it to slide in opposite directions. The relationship between shear force and load is often linear, with the shear force directly proportional to the applied load.
What is the difference between load bearing and non load bearing partition walls?
The question answers itself. Load bearing are holding something up. The second floor or the roof. They usually run in the opposite direction of the peak of the roof. Any wall may be load bearing, you just have to look and see what is on top of it. A non load bearing wall is just holding itself and can usually be removed without causing any problem.
Difference between a deep groove ball bearing and an angular contact ball bearing?
deep grove ball bearing is Accumulate the load 90 degree but angular contact ball bearing 25,45,Ect degree
What is the difference between bearing capacity and bearing pressure?
bearing capacity is the capacity of soil or strata that can be able to sustain the load of superstructure in the unit of load per m2 either ton/m2 or KN/m2 bearing pressure is nothing but bearing capacity example when you apply 100 KN on a unit area, equal opposite pressure will rise from the soil. load / area = bearing capacity
Difference between load bearing and non-load bearing walls?
Non-load-bearing walls support only themselves; they are interior partition walls. They have a single top plate. While non-load-bearing walls might run perpendicular to floor and ceiling joists, they will not be aligned above support beams.

What is load bearing header?
A typical load bearing header will be 2 2x12s with a 7/16 plywood spacer between them.
The difference between shear force diagram and shear force influence line diagram?
A shear force diagram is used to give the value of shear force at any point on the beam due to static load while the influence line gives the effect of a moving load at any point on the beam. Abdul Nafay Achakzai
Define - No load bearing wall?
A wall bearing no load.
Explain the difference single shear and double shear?
Single shear carries all load on one face whule double shear carries it on two faces, so stress is lowere by a factor of 2 for a given load. For example shear stress on a cantilever pin is V/A ( load/area, single shear) but on a pin between two supports it is V/2A
Difference between load shedding and blackout?
