To effectively communicate structural matters during a project's design and execution, familiarity with basic language and terminology is required to ensure a clear understanding of structural issues and objectives. This module will discuss the following terms:

A.  Axial Tensile Stress

B.  Axial Compressive Stress     

C.  Shear Stress

D.  Bending Stress

E.  Web Crippling

F.  Bearing Stress

G.  Elastic and Plastic Deformation

H.  Buckling

I.    Moment of Inertia
