What is the strongest geometric prism?
The strongest geometric shape is probably the triangular prism.
Which 3-d shapes are strongest?
I think the strongest 3D shape is a cylinder.
Is the star the strongest shape?
No. On the lines to rigidity basis, a triangle is.
What shape made out of straight pieces is strongest or most rigid?
The most rigid shape that you can make out of straight pieces is the triangle.
How are triangles used in engineering?
triangles are the second strongest shape next to the arch
What is the second strongest geometric shape?
It really depends on what kind of strength you are looking for, a triangle is the strongest shape when rigidity is what is needed (so when you want to have a strong cantilever structure or a general structure that can resist a variety of stresses). It's difficult to say what might be the second strongest shape in such circumstances, but maybe a triangle that is not equilateral, but this is an over simplification. An octet-truss is the strongest structure for cantilevering because of the strength of the triangle However if its 'hardness' you're looking for, or resistance to purely compression, a tessellation of hexagons is your strongest shape, and therefore perhapse an irregular hexagon is your second strongest. A lorimerlite framework is the strongest truss under compression because of the strength of hexagons.
Which is the strongest bridge structure - truss cantilever suspension or arch?
The arch is the strongest structure. The reason the others are sometimes used is the span is so long the arch isn't practicle.
What is the strongest geometric prism?
The strongest geometric shape is probably the triangular prism.
Which 3-d shapes are strongest?
I think the strongest 3D shape is a cylinder.
What geometric shape is strongest?
A sphere.
When was the first cantilever bridge made?
The Niagara Cantilever Bridge or Michigan Central Railway Cantilever Bridge
What is the plural of cantilever?
The noun cantilever has a normal plural, cantilevers.
What is the most common shape of tunnels?
An inverted U shape is the most common tunnel shape as this is the strongest.
Which shape is found most often within a structure?
Triangle. Its the strongest geometric shape
What is the strongest shape underground Catenary or Hemisphere?
sphere
5 famous cantilever bridges?
I only know one famous cantilever bridges. One is close to Chippiwa Park and another is by the water. TEHE Forth Bridge (Scotland): perhaps the world's most well-known thanks to its size and very distinctive shape.
Why is triangle the strongest shape?
Triangles are the strongest shape because their three sides and three angles distribute weight and force evenly, reducing stress on any one side. This geometric structure provides stability and support in architectural and engineering designs, making triangles essential for withstanding pressure and maintaining structural integrity.
