Materials such as steel, concrete, and wood are commonly used for their strength and stability in construction. Design characteristics that contribute to strength and stability include proper framing techniques, adequate bracing, and reinforcement with materials like rebar. Additionally, the use of appropriate foundation types, such as deep foundations for tall structures, also enhances the overall stability of a building.
Materials such as steel, concrete, and timber are commonly used in structures for their strength and durability. Design characteristics like bracing, cross-bracing, trusses, and reinforced foundations help distribute loads evenly and enhance stability. Additionally, factors like the shape of the structure, proper structural connections, and using appropriate methods for construction play a crucial role in ensuring structural strength and stability.

Strong ligaments and tendons around the knee joint provide stability by limiting excessive movement. The congruence of the bony surfaces in the knee joint helps to maintain stability by allowing for smooth articulation during movement.
