This handles structural safety against failure caused by bending (flexure), compression (axial load), shear, and torsion. It ensures the building will not collapse under extreme loads.
Ensures the structure remains functional under normal working conditions, specifically controlling deflection, cracking, and vibrations. Comprehensive Topic Coverage
