The document compares different types of loads on structures to geometric shapes called funiculars. It lists single point loads, two point loads, uniform loads, mixed loads, self weight, and radial loads and the associated funicular shapes of triangle, trapezoid, parabola, gothic curve, catenary, and circular respectively.
