In buiding, structural integrity means the stucture can support the weight of the load and hold together under the load. For example, if a building has structural integrity, the walls can support the load of the rafters and roof.
No
Structural failure.
A structural section describes a house's foundation assembly. More specifically, it refers to the section of the assembly that is horizontal.

A redundant member refers to a component or part in a system that is unnecessary or not essential for its overall function or performance. Redundant members are typically included for backup or additional support, providing extra capacity or redundancy in the event of failure.

The Structural-functional approach
Materials such as steel, concrete, and timber are commonly used in structures for their strength and durability. Design characteristics like bracing, cross-bracing, trusses, and reinforced foundations help distribute loads evenly and enhance stability. Additionally, factors like the shape of the structure, proper structural connections, and using appropriate methods for construction play a crucial role in ensuring structural strength and stability.
