A structural member subjected to an axial compressive force is called as (a) Beam (b) Column (c) Frame (s) Strut

Structural Members

Columns:

Columns are lengthy vertical members that are primarily supported by compressive loads. Vertical structural members of a structure are columns.

Ties:

A structural element that is being tugged from opposing ends is called a tie. A tie supposedly "functions in tension."

Beam-Column:

A beam-column refers to a structural component that can flex and compress.

Grid:

Grid is the name for a system of beams that connect at right angles and are subject to vertical loads.

Cables and Arches:

Typically, cables are permitted to sag and are hanging at their ends. The forces are then only tension and are pointed at the cable's axis. Cables and arches are similar, but arches are upside-down. They support compressive loads that are aimed toward the arch's axis.

Plates and Slabs:

Plates are flat, three-dimensional structural elements that are often composed of metal and are frequently used in building floors and roofs. Plates and slabs are similar, with the exception that slabs are typically composed of concrete.
