None, that is what makes them balanced.

According to Newton's First Law, an object on which no overall force is acting will not experience any acceleration, and will carry on with its constant velocity (being stationary is a valid part of a constant velocity, it is, after all, just a velocity of magnitude zero).
So, balanced forces will have no effect on objects: the weight of your table or chair acting downwards is (near enough) exactly balanced by the normal reaction force of the earth beneath you, so your chair doesn't go anywhere (relative to the surface of the earth)

Balanced forces means that the force one way equals the force the other way.
People don't fall through the floor.
Shelves stand up.
Cars stay on the ground and don't fly straight up.
Buildings don't fall when the wind blows.

Compression. Just consider that an egg between two pressing hands and the same egg between two elephants is experiencing 'balanced forces' in either case, although the cases are much different in result.

Absolutely nothing happens to it.
It doesn't move anywhere (up, down, sideways...), it doesn't get hotter or cooler, it doesn't compress or expand and it doesn't emit or absorb any energy.
