How does the shape of a steel section influence its force-deformation response?
43. How does the shape of a steel section influence its force-deformation response?
- It affects the material composition
- It alters the elastic modulus
- It changes the plastic moment capacity
- It has no significant impact
Answer
The correct answer is: C) It changes the plastic moment capacity
Explanation
The shape of a steel section directly influences its plastic moment capacity and, consequently, its force-deformation response. Different section shapes offer varying resistance to bending and deformation
