The principle of superposition is made use of in structural computations when:
A
The geometry of the structure changes by a finite amount during the application of the loads.
B
The changes in the geometry of the structure during the application if the loads is too small and the strain in the structure are directly proportional to the corresponding stresses.
C
The strains in the structure are not directly proportional to the corresponding stresses, even though the effect of changes in geometry can be neglected.
D
None of the above conditions are met.
