A strut is a structural component normally found in engineering, aeronautics, architecture and anatomy. Struts generally work with the fight against longitudinal compression, but they can also work in tension.

Anatomi manusia
Part of the clavicle functionality is to act as a support between the shoulder blade and breastbone, against the forces that will bring the upper limb near the thorax. Keeping the upper extremity away from the thorax is very important for its range of motion. Less complete clavicle can be seen in cleidocranial dysostosis, and the abnormal proximity of the shoulder to the median plane exemplifies the importance of clavicle as a strut.

Architecture and construction
Strut is a common name in wood framing for support or scantling support that is lighter than posting. Often struts are found on the roof of the framing either from a tie beam or post a king to the main rafters. Struts can be perpendicular or tilted vertically (later called tilted, swept, or tilted) and may be straight or curved. In England, the strut is commonly used in the sense of lighter tasks: a king's post carries a ridge beam but no pillars, the queen post carries a plate but there is no queen queen, the crown pole carries a crown of dishes but the crown buffer does not.
Rotating or blocking between the floor beams adds strength to the floor system.
Struts provides forward-facing support in longitudinal directions, which can be used to keep the two components separate, performing opposite functions from tie .
In piping, struts hold the movement of components in one direction while allowing movement or contraction in the other direction.
Strut channels made of steel, aluminum, or fiber-reinforced plastics are used in the building industry and are often used to support cable trays and other forms of cable management, and pipe support systems.
Aircraft
Supporting struts and cables of various types is widely used in early aircraft to strengthen and strengthen, and sometimes even form, the main functional bodies. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s they were no longer used for low tensile support. Most struts of aircraft amplifiers are generally loaded in compression, with cables taking up load voltages. Struts Lifts are increasingly being used during replacement periods and are still used on smaller current aircraft where the main performance is not a problem. Usually they are applied to high wing monoplane and act in tension during flight.
Struts has also been widely used for pure structural reasons to install engines, landing gears and other loads. The oil legs emerging from the retractable landing gear are still called Oleo struts .
Automobiles
As a component of the car chassis, the strut can be a passive amplifier to strengthen the chassis and/or body, or the active component of the suspension. An example of an active unit is a coilover design in automotive suspension. Coilover combines shock absorber and spring in one unit.
The common form of automotive suspension strut in a car is the MacPherson strut. MacPherson struts are often purchased by automakers in a set of four completed sub-assemblies: These can be mounted on the car body as part of the factory's own assembly operations. A MacPherson strut combines the main function of shock absorber (as a silencer), with the ability to support side-to-side loads not as long as the compression axis, somewhat similar to the shear pillar suspension, thus eliminating the need for upper suspension arms. This means that the strut should have a more rugged design, with fixing points near the center for mounting the load.
Another common type of strut used in air suspension is an air support that combines a shock absorber with an air spring and can be designed in the same way as a coilover device. It is available in most types of suspension settings including beam shaft and MacPherson strut style design.
Transport-related struts are used in "load-bearing" applications from highways and off-road suspensions to hoods and hatch windows that support wing support. The majority of struts have bearings, but only for cases, when the strut mounts serve as a steering shaft. For such struts, the bearing is a worn item, as it is subjected to constant impact of vibration and its condition reflects the alignment of the wheel and the steering response. In a vehicle suspension system, the strut is most often a coil-over spring assembly and a shock absorber. Other variants for using coil-over springs as compressed-load carriers include support through pressurized nitrogen gas that serves as a spring, and hard-tail support that does not provide longitudinal compression or damping.
