802.11 Fixed Field Elements

Greetings, hopefully quick question: within an 802.11 frame how does a receiver know which fixed field elements are contained within a management frame? For instance, is it just part of the standard that a beacon frame contains the beacon interval field and capatability information field?

Thanks in advance,

Ben
