Structural Engineering A structural engineer designing a member of a structure must consider the forces that will act on that member. Most often, natural forces like snow, wind, or rain distribute force over the entire member. For practical purposes, however, an engineer determines the distributed force as a single resultant force acting at one point on the member. If the distributed force is given by the function \(W=W(x)\), in newtons per meter (N/m), then the magnitude \(F_{R}\) of the resultant force is\[F_{R}=\int_{a}^{b}W(x)\, dx\]
