The applied load refers to the load which acts on a structure at a given location or series of locations. The reaction is that which balances the applied load at the specific boundary (reaction) loactions. The sum of the applied load is equal to the reactions in the axis of application. For equilibrium, the sum of all forces and monemts are zero, so reactions may contain moment terrms under applied load, even if the applied laod has no applied moment.
