What is Understanding Dead and Live Loads about?
There are two main types of loads that structures must be designed to withstand: dead loads and live loads. Dead loads are constant loads like the weight of the structure itself and permanent fixtures. Live loads are variable loads like people, wind, and snow that change over time. Structural engineers must carefully calculate the loads from both categories and apply safety factors to ensure structures can withstand the maximum expected loads during their lifetime.
