The coordinates of the structure model and the type of loads applied to it can cause the structure to fail. Below are some of the different types of loads that can cause structural failure:
1 Weight loads: These loads include the weight of the structure itself, equipment, coating and contents inside the building such as furniture and kitchen equipment. If the weight load exceeds the capacity of the structure, it may cause the structure to fail.
2 Wind loads: Wind loads are caused by wind and are among the strongest loads in structures. The wind speed and its pressure change the shape of the structure, which can lead to the structure breaking.
3. Earthquake loads: Earthquake loads are caused by the seismic force that stimulates the structure. As a result of this load, there is a possibility of damage and destruction of the structure.
4 Thermal loads: Thermal loads are caused by changes in the temperature of the structure. Changing the temperature of the structure causes its length to change, and as a result, it may cause the structure to fail.
5. Seismic loads: Seismic loads are caused by the seismic force that excites the structure. As a result of this load, there is a possibility of damage and destruction of the structure.
6. Human loads: Some loads that can damage the structure may be caused by human actions, such as non-compliance with construction standards and the continuation of structures, making inappropriate changes or equipment failure inside the building.
7 Combined loads: These loads are a combination of different loads and may cause structural failure.
In general, in the design of the building structure, all possible loads should be considered and the capacity of the structure should be determined in such a way that it can bear these loads and not damage the structure.
