Trapezoidal load
- It is named after the its shape, which resembles a trapezoid.
- The magnitude of the load is not constant but varies linearly with distance along the element.
- It has a starting value (W1), an ending value (W2), a length (L), and a height or depth (h) between W1 and W2.
- The load profile is often represented graphically with a trapezoidal shape.
Additional InformationTriangular load
- A load is spread over a beam in such a way that it varies uniformly on each unit length, is known as uniformly varying load.
- Sometimes, the load is zero at one end and increases uniformly to the other. such load is known as triangular load.
Uniformly distributed load
- A distributed load acts over a finite length of the beam. A distributed load may be uniformly.
- Such loads are measured by their intensity which is expressed by the force per unit distance along the axis of the beam.
