Week 6 Challenge
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.

Procedure- The type of given bracing is Diagonal Bracing, Load path is along the bracing system the Beams as indicated in the figure . Axial force type - Bracings are in compression and all the Beams are in Tension.
Result- It is concluded that the type of given Bracing system is Diagonal Bracing and Load path is through Beams and Bracing and axial force type is compression in bracing and tension in Beams as shown in the figure
Q-3 (Fig-ii)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing is Diagonal Bracing, Load path in the bracing system is indicated in the figure. Axial force type is compression and Tension in alternate Bracing. Beams are unstressed.

Result- It is concluded that the type of given Bracing system is Diagonal Bracing and Load path is through Bracing as shown in the figure in which beams are basically unstressed while alternate Bracing are in Tension and Compression.
Q-3(Fig-iii)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Cross Bracing, Load path in the bracing system is indicated in the figure. Axial Force type are Tension and Compression with no stress on Beams as shown below in figure.

Result- It is concluded that the type of given Bracing system is Cross Bracing and Load path is through Bracing only as shown in the figure in which beams are basically unstressed while Bracing are in Tension and Compression.
Q-3(Fig-iv)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Eccentric Bracing, Load path in the bracing system is along the Bracing as indicated in the figure. Axial Force type are Tension and Compression with no stress on Beams as shown below in figure.

Result- It i s concluded that the type of Bracing system is Eccentric Bracing, Load path is along Bracing members without any involvement of Beams which are unstressed. Axial force type are tension an compression
Q-3(Fig-v)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Diagonal Bracing or Single Diagonal Bracing, Load path in the bracing system is along the Column without involvement of Bracing members and Beams as indicated in the figure. Axial Force type are only Compression in column while beams and bracings are unstressed as indicated in figure figure.

Result- It is concluded that the type of bracing is " Diagonal Type". Load path is along column only and axial force type is Compression
Q-3(Fig-vi)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Diagonal Bracing or Single Diagonal Bracing, Load path is along the bracing system, beams and columns as indicated in the figure. Axial Force type are Compression in column and Bracing members while beams are in tension as indicated in figure figure.

Result- It is concluded that bracing type is- Diagonal Bracing. Load path is along the Column, beams and Bracings. Axial force type- Columns are in tension , Beams are in Tension ande Bracings are in Compression.
Q-3(Fig-vii)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Cross Bracing , Load path is along the bracing system, beams and columns as indicated in the figure. Axial Force type are Compression in column and Bracing members while beams are in tension as indicated in figure figure.

Result- It is concluded that the type of bracing is Cross Bracing. Load path is along columns, Beams and Bracing members as indicated in figure. Axial force type is columns as usual in compression, Bracing members are in also compression while Beams are in tension.
Q-3(Fig-viiii)
Aim and Introducion- In the given bracing system load path, axial force type and type of bracing system are to be found out.
Procedure- The given bracing systm below is Diagonal Eccentric Bracing, Load path is along the column system as indicated in the figure. Axial Force type is Compression in column and Bracing members are unstressed as indicated in figure figure.

Result- It is concluded that Type of bracing systen is Eccentric Bracing. Load path is along the column as indicated in figure. Axial force type - Bracing members are unstressed .
