This lecture covers the classification of structural elements based on their dimensions, focusing on bars as a primary example. The instructor explains the concept of modeling structural functions using bars, emphasizing the importance of joints and the normal forces acting within the bars. Different types of bars, such as compressed and tensed bars, are discussed, along with comparisons to ropes, cables, and chains.
