What is tension and Compression? Differences - Forces in Buildings & Bridges

Have you ever wondered how that bridge acts under compression or tension forces while you're driving above? Or how your roof takes the loading giving you a space to enjoy. Don't worry! I'll let you delve deep today to see some basics of stresses in a building or a bridge including compression and tension forces. So, what is tension? The word tension means "to stretch". It's a force that tries to stretch the material. So, what happens to a rope during a game of tug-of-war? It undergoes tension from the two sweaty opposing teams pulling on it. This force also acts on bridge structures, resulting in tensional stress. So, examples of tension in daily life include: Suspension bridge cables, they could not struts in compression or they'd collapse Elastic bands and guitar strings Wire fences Springs Elevator Climbing ropes Now let’s see the opposite of tension = the compression. Compression is the force that shortens an object together. In fact, it attempts to compress the object. What happens when you push down on a spring and collapse it? You compress it, and by squishing it, you shorten its length. Compressional stress, therefore, is the opposite of tensional stress.
