Solar observations at high angular resolution show that the solar magnetic field is structured in fluxtubes of 1.5 kG and less than 1 arcsec size at the photospheric level. Manifestations of these fluxtubes can be diagnosed in the chromosphere and transition region with EUV images in 160 nm continua or in the Ly alpha and C IV lines formed at different heights and temperatures. The equilibrium configuration of the fluxtubes is reviewed for different models: thin tubes, static loops, steady flows, and numerical unstationary simulations. In order to describe the pressure and energy balance from the photospheric to the coronal configurations, it is necessary to determine such parameters as the temperature, electronic density, and velocities that will be measured with the coronal instruments on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO).
