Forces Applied to a Structure | Science Lesson

Forces are all around us, and they play a crucial role in determining how structures behave. Today, we'll delve into how we can identify and understand the forces acting on a structure by considering their magnitude, direction, point of application, and plane of application. When we talk about forces acting on a structure, we're referring to pushes or pulls that can cause the structure to move or change shape. These forces can be external, like the wind pushing on a building, or internal, like the forces within a bridge holding it together. This "Minds On" lesson aligns with the Ontario Grade 7 Science Curriculum expectation: D2.3 identify the magnitude, direction, point of application, and plane of application of the forces applied to a structure
