List of structural elements
- List of structural elements
Structural elements are used in structural analysis to simplify the structure which is to be analysed. An is defined as the simplest part of the whole. Within a structure, an element is a part of the structure which cannot be broken down (decomposed) into parts of different kinds (e.g., beam or column).[cite book]

Structural elements can be linear, surfaces or volumes.Fact|date=June 2007
Linear elements:
*Rod - axial loads
*Beam - axial and bending loads
*Column - compressive loads
Surface elements:
*membrane - in-plane loads only
*shell - in plane and bending moments
*shear panel - shear loads only
Volumes:
*Axial, shear and bending loads for all three dimensions
