The invention proposes a guide arm for guiding at least one element having an elongated shape (20), corresponding to a set of cables and/or pipes. The arm comprises an inner cavity (62) opening on the outside of the arm at each of the ends thereof, and in which the elements having an elongated shape can extend. According to the invention, this structure more particularly comprises - a frame (8) comprising a beam (18) linked to means (30, 36, 44) for holding the elements having an elongated shape on the outside and along the beam, and - a cover (54) of which the walls (56, 58) cover the holding means of the frame, and are engaged with the beam, in such a way as to form the inner cavity in which the elements having an elongated shape extend, shock-absorbing means (68) being arranged between the means (30, 36, 44) for holding the elements having an elongated shape (20), and the longitudinal walls (56, 58), in such a way as to reduce and damp the movements of the means for holding in the cavity (62). L'invention propose un bras de guidage d'au moins un élément de forme allongée (20), correspondant à un ensemble de câbles et/ou de canalisations. Le bras comprend une cavité interne (62) débouchant à l'extérieur du bras à chacune de ses extrémités, et où peuvent s'étendre les éléments de forme allongée. Selon l'invention, cette structure comprend plus particulièrement -un châssis (8) comprenant une poutre (18) relié à des moyens de maintien (30, 36, 44) des éléments de forme allongée à l'extérieur et le long de la poutre, et -un capot (54) dont des parois (56, 58) recouvrent les moyens de maintien du châssis, et sont engagées avec la poutre, de manière à former la cavité interne où s'étendent les éléments de forme allongée, des moyens d'amortissement (68) étant agencés entre les moyens de maintien (30, 36, 44) des éléments de forme allongée(20), et les parois longitudinales (56, 58), de manière à réduire et amortir les mouvements des moyens de maintien dans la cavité (62).
