The document is a student assignment submission for a structural design course. It contains 3 questions related to structural load calculations and beam properties. Question 1 calculates the load carried by different structural members using formulas for area and stress. Question 2 provides formulas for stress, strain, Young's modulus, and defines key terms. Question 3 calculates properties like area, moments of inertia for different cross-section beams.
