Structural Sketching and Labelling Review

This set of flashcards covers vocabulary and technical components of Portal Frame structures, steel sections, castellated beams, stanchion bases, and manual folding machines based on the lecture notes.

Portal Frame

A structure type composed of members such as cold rolled eaves beam, APEX, column, rafter, eaves strut, and foundation.

Apex

The highest point of a Portal Frame structure where the rafters meet.

Eaves strut

A structural component of a Portal Frame located at the junction of the roof and the wall.

Rolled steel sections

Five specific detail types listed: Steel Plate, I-beam, steel pipe, Tee-beam, and Channel.

Castellated beam

A beam type featuring a series of openings in its web, characterized by higher bending strength and weight reduction.

Castellated beam Advantages

Higher bending strength, Weight and cost Reduction, and Service Integration.

Castellated beam Disadvantages

Reduce shear Capacity, Higher fabrication costs, and Stress concentration.

Stanchion base with rivet

A base configuration where the vertical column profile sits on top of the base plate.

Stanchion base Welded

A base configuration where the vertical column sits directly to the base plate without any intervening angle clips.

Manual folding machine components

Includes the Clamping operating handle, Rear beam, Upper clamping beam, Folding beam, Counter weight, and Bending Bar.

TAA balance Adjust

A specific adjustment component found on the manual folding machine.

Side frame

The structural side component of a manual folding machine.

Splices

Structural connections used on columns and beams, the purposes of which are explained with the help of sketches.
