Mechanics of Structure: Diploma in Civil Engineering

The document discusses mechanics of structure and column stability. It introduces topics related to columns and struts, including different end conditions, Euler's formula for column buckling, effective height, and slenderness ratio. It also defines types of loads such as live, dead, and earthquake loads, and how loads can be concentrated or distributed. Finally, it outlines various types of structural supports.
