7.10.2.9.2 Type values

Type	Description
`CABLE`	A tension member which is able to carry transverse loads only under large deflection.
`COMPRESSION_MEMBER`	A member without tensional stiffness.
`PIN_JOINED_MEMBER`	A member with capacity to carry axial loads only, i.e. a link. Typically used in trusses.
`RIGID_JOINED_MEMBER`	A member with capacity to carry transverse and axial loads, i.e. a beam. Its actual joints may be rigid or pinned. Typically used in rigid frames.
`TENSION_MEMBER`	A member without compressional stiffness.
`USERDEFINED`	A specially defined member.
`NOTDEFINED`	A member without further categorization.
