Actions & Form

Structural Form
The part of a structure that must transmit applied loads is the structural system.
The mode of transmission is a function of geometrical configuration, or form.
The basic modes, or “actions” may be:
Tension
Compression
Flexure (Bending)
Shear
[Torsion (Twisting, Shear)]
These may be combined in many structural forms, as seen in the following examples:
