Final Exam of Structural Behavior and Analysis I

The document contains a final exam for a structural behavior and analysis course. It has 4 questions that assess different structural concepts: [1] types of loads, supports, and stresses in reinforced concrete; [2] benefits of ties in columns and differences between arch and cable structures; [3] stability and determinacy of structures; [4] drawing shear force and bending moment diagrams for beams. The exam tests both conceptual understanding and ability to apply structural analysis methods.
