Topological condensed matter systems from class A and class AII of the classification table have received classical electromagnetic and mechanical analogs and protected wave-guiding with such systems has been demonstrated experimentally. Here we introduce a map which generates classical analogs for all entries of the classification table, using only passive elements. Physical mechanical models are provided for all strong topological phases in dimension 2, as well as for three classes in dimension 3. This includes topological super-conducting phases, which have never been attempted with classical systems.
