STRUCTURAL CONDITIONS
STABILITY
Capacity to remain upright and not fall over
The centre of gravity must be centre
Widen its base
Bury the botton
Centre the weight in the lowest part
Brace it
RIGIDITY
All bodies deform slighly when a force is applied to them
This deformation musn´t prevent it from fultfiling it function
We choose a basis:
Compression
Traction
Bending
To make rigid joints:
Steel: rebar frameworks
Metal: corbelling
Prevent deforming
Triangular structures
Cross-bracing
RESISTANCE
Capacity of bear the tensions that´s subjected to without breaking
It depends on it shape and the material used to build it
All materials have a tensil strenght
