All structures must be designed to carry loads without danger of overall collapse or failure of their components. One way to assure structural safety is to ascertain that stresses and strains produced by loads are less than those allowed by established design codes. This determination of stresses and strains in proposed new structures is a primary objective of structural analysis.  3, record 1, English, - structural%20analysis

Conception générale et calcul des structures. Dans le calcul des éléments de la structure, on commence par les éléments qui ne reçoivent aucune réaction d'autres éléments [...] et ainsi de suite jusqu'aux liaisons au sol ou à l'infrastructure. Cette opération est dite "descente de charges" et aboutit: 1. à contrôler que tous les éléments sont stables [...]; 2. à déterminer les réactions d'appui. Ces réactions d'appui [...] servent au calcul des fondations [...]  1, record 1, French, - calcul%20des%20structures
