In architecture and engineering a lorimerlite structure is a lightweight support framework made up entirely of tetrahedral joints (four beams meeting at 109.5 degree angles). Lorimerlite structures are used to withstand compressive loads with the least amount of structural material. This is achieved through the inherent geometry of the support system; for a predefined volume of space to fill and predefined number of joints in the structure, each beam finds the shortest unbraced path through space (in the same way as a hexagonal grid in two dimensions). The smaller the length of individual beams the greater the resistance to axial compression, reducing the danger of lateral buckling and thus enhancing the compressive strength of the entire structure. Loads are distributed at each joint evenly with every beam meeting at 109.5 degree angles.
The strongest structure is often considered to be the triangle due to its ability to distribute weight and stress evenly. Triangular shapes are commonly used in bridge and building construction to provide stability and support. Structures that incorporate triangles are known to be more resilient and less prone to collapse under pressure.
Suspension bridges are typically stronger than truss bridges because they can span longer distances and support heavier loads. The design of a suspension bridge allows for the weight to be distributed more evenly, reducing stress on the structure. Truss bridges are better suited for shorter spans and are generally lighter in weight.
The conditions that affect physical stability are heat, temperature, compression, pressure, and the molecular structure.
all of them are solids (under room temperate, and room compression)
A2. In a beam supported at both its ends the lower half of the beam will be under tension, and the upper half of the beam will be under compression.

It really depends on what kind of strength you are looking for, a triangle is the strongest shape when rigidity is what is needed (so when you want to have a strong cantilever structure or a general structure that can resist a variety of stresses). It's difficult to say what might be the second strongest shape in such circumstances, but maybe a triangle that is not equilateral, but this is an over simplification. An octet-truss is the strongest structure for cantilevering because of the strength of the triangle However if its 'hardness' you're looking for, or resistance to purely compression, a tessellation of hexagons is your strongest shape, and therefore perhapse an irregular hexagon is your second strongest. A lorimerlite framework is the strongest truss under compression because of the strength of hexagons.
"Vertical, with zero declination for loads under compression;" no intention to flippant, but more information is needed about the structure or load for a useful answer to be tendered. If the structure is intended to hold liquid or gas the strongest structure may spherical, etc.
Stone slabs are stronger under compression than tension. This is because most stone materials are able to withstand higher forces when being compressed rather than being pulled apart. Stress is distributed more evenly and effectively in compression, making stone slabs less likely to fail compared to tension.

compression: the keystone in particular is under rather high compression forces.
it is under compression since both sides are being pushed towards each other.
Concrete is strong in compression, as the aggregate efficiently carries the compression load. However, it is weak in tension as the cement holding the aggregate in place can crack, allowing the structure to fail. Reinforced concrete solves these problems by adding metal reinforcing bars, glass fiber, or plastic fiber to carry tensile loads
