What is Self Weight?

Self-weight refers to the own weight of body, due to the mass present in it. The load exerted due to the self weight is the permanent load on the structure. The load exerted by the self weight is also called dead load.

What is Prismatic Bar?

The Prismatic Bar has a uniform cross-section. It is a structural member having a straight longitudinal axis and a constant cross-section throughout its length
