Sudden and Impact Loading on Structural Membe

A lifting hook in a construction site crane system experiences a sudden load due to improper handling. The load is equivalent to twice the static load. Tasks: Derive the expression for strain energy under sudden loading. Compare the strain energy for gradual and sudden loading. Discuss the importance of impact factor in real-life construction scenarios.
