STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS

Structural systems refer to the framework that supports a building or structure. This framework is designed to provide stability, strength, and rigidity to the building, and to resist external forces such as wind, earthquakes, and snow loads. Structural systems typically include elements such as columns, beams, trusses, and foundations. They are often made of materials such as steel, concrete, or wood, and are designed to withstand the stresses and loads placed upon them. The structural system is a critical aspect of any building design, as it determines the building's ability to withstand both everyday and extreme forces. Architects and engineers work together to design and analyze the structural system, ensuring that it meets all safety and building code requirements. Properly designed and executed structural systems are essential for creating safe and long-lasting buildings and structures.
