• Tie Rods (or bracing struts)
- 54– usually straight horizontal members used primarily to carry vertical loads - primarily designed to resist bending momentSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Beams)

- 56generally have rectangular cross-sectionSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Beams)

• Pre-Cast Concrete Beams - 58maybe sawn from a solid piece of wood or laminated (constructed from solid sections woods, fastened together)STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Beams)
• Wooden Beams - 59members that are generally vertical and resist axial compressive loads Examples of column sections - tubes and wide flange (for metal columns) - circular and square sections with reinforcing steel bars (for concrete columns)STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Column)
• Columns - 60occasional columns designed to resist axial load and bending momentSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Column)
• Beam Columns - 61• used when the span of a structure is required to be large and its depth is not an important criterion for design • consist of slender elements, usually arranged in a triangular fashion • has the advantage over a beam to use less material in supporting a given load and the long slender rods can be arranged in various ways • economically feasible to cover spans ranging from 9m to 122m (sometimes even longer)STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Truss)
- 62composed of members that lie in the same plane, frequently used for bridges and roof supportSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Truss)
• Planar Trusses - 63with members extending in three dimensions and are suitable for derricks and towersSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Truss)
• Space Trusses - 64• usually a flexible material that can carry tensile loads • unlike tension ties, the external load is not applied along the axis of the cable, and consequently takes a sag formSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Cables)
- 65• commonly used to support bridges and building roofs (for these purposes, cable has an advantage over beams and trusses especially for (spans greater than 46 m) • limited only by the sag, weight and method of anchorageSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Cables)
- 66• has a reverse curvature to that of cable, thus, achieves its strength in compression ➢must be rigid in order to maintain its shape ➢frequently used in structures like dome roofs and masonry wall openingsSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Arch)
- 67—STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Arch)

- 68• often used in buildings and are composed of beams and columns that are either pin or fixed connected • extend in 2 or 3 dimensionsSTRUCTURAL ELEMENTS (Frames)
