This document discusses different types of structural elements including beams, columns, and beam-columns and the types of loading they experience. Beams can experience uniform distributed loading along their major or minor axis, or experience torsion. Columns primarily experience axial compression. Beam-columns experience both axial compression and transverse loading.
