Always wondered if in wood pegs or metal rivets the internal bending 
elements of tension and compression were only passing miniscule events 
within the cellular wood or crystalline structure that functioned until 
their moment of failure, at which point shear was identified and a 
measurement assigned.

Always wished for a more detailed course in engineering, including the
micro 
realm.   Sort of an appreciation like the Eames film Powers of Ten.
