2. Strut channel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strut_channel

   Strut is normally made of sheet steel, with a zinc coating (), paint, epoxy, powder coat, or other finish.. Strut channel is also manufactured from stainless steel for use where rusting might become a problem (e.g., outdoors, facilities with corrosive materials), from aluminium alloy when weight is an issue or from fiberglass for very corrosive environments.

3. T-slot structural framing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-slot_structural_framing

   T-slot structural framing is a framing system consisting of lengths of square or rectangular extruded aluminium, typically 6105-T5 aluminium alloy, with a T-slot down the centerline of one or more sides. It is also known under several generic names, such as aluminium extrusion, aluminium profile and 2020 extrusion if the cross-section is 20x20 ...

4. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_(structure)

   Beam (structure) A statically determinate beam, bending (sagging) under a uniformly distributed load. A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally across the beam's axis (an element designed to carry a load pushing parallel to its axis would be a strut or column). Its mode of deflection is primarily by bending ...

5. Lattice girder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_girder

   The term is also sometimes used to refer to a laced strut[2] or laced tie, structural members commonly made using a combination of structural sections connected with diagonal lacing. This form allows a strut to resist axial compression and a (tie) to resist axial tension. A lattice girder, like any girder, primarily resists bending.

6. Strut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strut

   Architecture and construction. Strut is a common name in timber framing for a support or brace of scantlings lighter than a post. Frequently struts are found in roof framing from either a tie beam or a king post to a principal rafter. Struts may be vertically plumb or leaning (then called canted, raking, or angled) and may be straight or curved.

7. Bracing (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bracing_(aeronautics)

   Bracing (aeronautics) In aeronautics, bracing comprises additional structural members which stiffen the functional airframe to give it rigidity and strength under load. Bracing may be applied both internally and externally, and may take the form of struts, which act in compression or tension as the need arises, and/or wires, which act only in ...

8. Integrated Truss Structure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Truss_Structure

   The Integrated Truss Structure (ITS) of the International Space Station (ISS) consists of a linear arranged sequence of connected trusses on which various unpressurized components are mounted such as logistics carriers, radiators, solar arrays, and other equipment. It supplies the ISS with a bus architecture.

9. Tensegrity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensegrity

   Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and arranged in such a way that the compressed members (usually bars or struts) do not touch each other while the prestressed tensioned members (usually cables or tendons) delineate the system spatially.
