Types of Structures and Structural elements
1. Mass Structures
2. Trabeated Structures
3. Arched and vaulted structures
Example
4. Trussed Structures
5. Laminar Structures
These are made up of sheets that form a protective housing and support.
Example:
Their structural element: sheets(body and fuselage
6. Geodesic structures
Example:
They are globed-shaped structures formed by triangles that, in turn, form pentagons or hexagons. They can be regarded as a mixture of truss and vaulted structures

7. Cable-stayed or suspension structures
Example:
8. Frame structures
Beams are horizontal elements that support the weight of the floors and ceilings above
Example:
Pillars are vertical elements that support the beams and the rest of the structure
9. Inflatable structures
Example:
Structural element
The End
Example: Camp Nou
Example: Burj Khalifa
Example: Stonehenge
Example: Aqueduct of Segovia
Example: Eiffel tower
Example: Roman Colisseum
Example: Arc de Triomphe
Example: Vault Structure
Example: Eiffel Tower
The structures are classified by their main structural element, sometimes this is difficult because many of them have two or more elements.
The different types of structures are: mass, trabeated, arched and vaulted, trussed, laminar, geodesic, cable-stayed or suspension, frame and, among the most modern ones, inflatable
Example: Greek structure
Natural structures are structures that occur naturally. There are a lot of natural structures, here an example:
