True, The four main structural forces are axial, shear, bending, and torsion., Tension in steel is described as one of the most efficient ways to design., In bending, the top of a loaded beam is in compression and the bottom is in tension., A shorter compression member can resist load better than a slender one., Concrete needs reinforcement on the tension face to reduce cracking., False, Compression members always fail by crushing and never by buckling., A more slender structure can take more compression load than a shorter one., In bending, the bottom of a beam gets shorter while the top gets longer., Post-tensioning tendons should be placed farthest from the tension face.
