Noun
/ləʊd trænzˈmɪʃən/
"Load transmission" refers to the process or system by which load (weight or force) is transferred from one part of a structure or system to another. This term is frequently used in engineering, mechanics, and structural design contexts. The frequency of use is moderate, as it is more common in written technical documents than in oral speech.
The load transmission from the beams to the columns must be calculated accurately to ensure the building's safety.
La transmisión de cargas de las vigas a las columnas debe calcularse con precisión para garantizar la seguridad del edificio.
Engineers often test load transmission in bridge designs to prevent structural failures during heavy traffic.
Los ingenieros a menudo prueban la transmisión de cargas en el diseño de puentes para prevenir fallos estructurales durante el tráfico pesado.
Effective load transmission is critical in the design of roller coasters to safeguard riders.
Una transmisión de carga efectiva es crítica en el diseño de montañas rusas para proteger a los pasajeros.
While "load transmission" itself is not a common part of idiomatic expressions, its components can be found in various technical idioms related to mechanics and engineering:
Carry the load
The team must carry the load of the project if they want to meet the deadline.
El equipo debe llevar la carga del proyecto si quiere cumplir con la fecha límite.
Load up on
Before the hike, we should load up on snacks and water.

The term "load" comes from the Old English "lād," meaning "way, course" or "load, burden," while "transmission" is derived from the Latin "transmissio," meaning "the act of sending across." The combination of these terms emphasizes the act of transferring a burden or force.
