Live Loading

To understand live loading in the sense of mechanical and structural engineering, it’s important to be familiar with the idea of a load as force exerted upon an object. There can be both dead loads and live loads. A dead load is simply a constant force that is unchanging over time, as in the way the walls of a structure must support the dead load of what is above them. On the other hand, a live load is a load that is variable and changes over time. Because of the nature of live loads, they can be caused by many different factors ranging from external phenomena to manufacturing processes.

Managing the forces exerted by live loads can be done in a variety of ways depending on the nature of the scenario in question, however, in manufacturing, live loading is often handled through the application of spring like the belleville springs Belleville International manufactures right here in Butler, Pennsylvania.
