Using paper and a plank of wood, I show you what makes material into a beam! This is also when we can start bringing together all the structural items we covered before to understand the all-purpose beam we see everywhere. Enjoy!

  • A teacher like you is making learning more interesting. Seeing an example is way much better than hearing lecture. Kudos👍

  • As a new project manager at a construction firm I have been given the added task of overseeing our architectural engineering department and I have to say this is a whole new world of education for me, Thanks for your lecture series. Subscribed!

  • I enjoy studying tree growth (trunk, limbs branches even root systems) from a structural perspective. It’s amazing how trees inherently grow proportions and cross sections to perfectly accommodate wind and snow loads

  • Paul, I just discovered you by watching how trusses work. Gotta say you know your stuff because we can understand your description of complex ideas. Subscribed!

  • Now I see I just wouldn't really understand the structural behavior of the geodesic dome home I'm building to live in if it wasn't for this golden playlist. Just awesome!!!

  • If we had Tutoriums like this 45 years ago. Things would be more easy to understand . In my 40 years carrieer as an engineer I was never involved in construction.

  • I think this demonstration could be even better by using a paperback book: Since it has little bending resistance away from the spine, but has considerably more towards or along it.
