* "Form-active" refers to a structural element, such as a column or arch, in which the shape of the longitudinal axis, in relation to the pattern of applied load, is such that the internal force is axial. "Non-form-active" elements, like beams, are subjected to bending stresses only. "Semi-form-active" refers to elements that combine bending and axial stress.

dear friends, you can search for "truss structures" or "space frames"
and any thing which relates to the axial forces!!!
