Anything in which the load acts longitudinal to the axis. For example, holding a weight overhead or on your shoulders (like you do during squats), is an axial loading exercise because the weight decompresses your spine.

What is difference between column and pillar?

In many cases these terms are interchangeable, but a column is usually subjected to mainly axial vertical loading, with some lateral load/moments, whilst a pillar is usually subjected mainly lateral loading (as a cantilever), with some axial vertical loading- an example of a pillar is to support retaining walls, or on the outsides of old buildings like cathedrals.


Why are pin joints used in truss analysis?

In a truss analysis, only the axial loading on each member is of interest. Since the pinned joint cannot transmit a bending moment, no bending stress is transmitted to the individual members, and thus only axial (tension or compression) loading occurs in the truss members.


Where can I learn more about carb loading ?

Mayo Clinic, Runners world and most exercise sites have information on carb loading. Carb loading is only recommended for exercising longer than 90 minutes so is not recommended for beginners to exercise.


What is biaxial loading?

Biaxial loading refers to the application of two perpendicular (often mutually orthogonal) loads or stresses on a material or structure simultaneously. This type of loading can lead to more complex deformation patterns compared to uniaxial loading. It is commonly encountered in engineering applications where materials are subjected to multi-axial stress states.


Can we calculate bearing size from shaft size?

No, you must select a bearing based on its operating speed, radial and/or axial loading, as well as the expected life.

What is the different between steel joist and steel girder?

A girder is the primary horizontal member carying loads from other beams and slabs connected to it. That is a girder has other beams connecting to it on its sides .Typically beams do not have other beams connecting to it but generally have only slabs transferring the loads to it. The case is similar to beam and joist combination where the closely spaced joists (floor joist and ceiling joist) transfer the loads to the beam but usually from the top rather than from the sides.
