Arch
Purpose of an arch Structure
• An arch is a structure that spans a space while supporting weight (e.g. a doorway in a stone wall).
• An Arch is a frame structure• An Arch is made to support very heavy loads

Beam bridge
Purpose of a Beam Bridge• The beam bridge can be short or long and is
made to support heavy loads and will last a long time too
• A beam bridge is a solid structure• Usually used for overpasses and on roads
Solid Structure
Purpose of a Solid Structure
• A solid Structure is a structure that is solid • A solid Structure is formed from a solid piece
of some strong material
Eiffel Tower
Purpose of the Eiffel Tower
• The Eiffel Tower is a frame Structure mostly Designed for Looks
• The Eiffel Tower is Made of Iron, Which is very strong
• The Eiffel Tower is a Globally Known around the world
Truss bridge
Purpose of a truss Bridge
• A truss bridge is very strong• It is a frame structure• The triangles in a truss bridge are very strong,
that’s what makes a truss bridge so strong
Dome
Purpose of a Dome
• A dome is a Shell Structure• A Dome is a structure that can Keep Heat in
very well, and they are easy to put up and build
• Dome structures are Good for Arenas and all year round buildings
Great Wall of China

bodies• It is said to be the largest graveyard on Earth,
because people who died building it got buried in it
Suspension Bridge
Purpose of a Suspension Bridge
• It is a Frame Structure• A suspension Bridge is a type of bridge in
which the deck is hung below suspended cables on vertical suspenders
I-Beam
Purpose of an I-Beam
• An I-Beam is a solid structure• The shape of an I-Beam is very strong and
durable• I-Beams have less mass than solid Beams
