  2. Weld access hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_access_hole

    The weld access hole or rat hole is a structural engineering technique in which a part of the web of an I-beam or T-beam is cut out at the end or ends of the beam. The hole in the web allows a welder to weld the flange to another part of the structure with a continuous weld the full width on both top and bottom sides of the flange.

  3. I-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    where I is the moment of inertia of the beam cross-section and c is the distance of the top of the beam from the neutral axis (see beam theory for more details). For a beam of cross-sectional area a and height h , the ideal cross-section would have half the area at a distance ⁠ h / 2 ⁠ above the cross-section and the other half at a ...

    A441 – structural shapes and plates (Superseded by A572) A572 – structural shapes and plates. A618 – structural pipe and tubing. A992 – Possible applications are W or S I-Beams. A913 – Quenched and Self Tempered (QST) W shapes. A270 – structural shapes and plates.

  5. Cellular beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_beam

    Cellular beam is a further development of the traditional castellated beam. [1] The advantage of the steel beam castellation process is that it increases strength without adding weight, making both versions an inexpensive solution to achieve maximum structural load capacity in building construction .

  6. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Likewise the normal convention for a positive bending moment is to warp the element in a "u" shape manner (Clockwise on the left, and counterclockwise on the right). Another way to remember this is if the moment is bending the beam into a "smile" then the moment is positive, with compression at the top of the beam and tension on the bottom. [1]

  7. Electron-beam welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-beam_welding

    Magnetic lenses can shape the beam into a narrow cone and focus to a small diameter. This allows for a high power density on the surface to be welded. Values of power density in the crossover (focus) of the beam can be as high as 10 4 –10 6 W/mm 2. Penetration depths can be on the order of hundredths of a millimeter.

  8. Airy points - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airy_points

    A beam supported at its Airy points has parallel ends. Vertical and angular deflection of a beam supported at its Airy points. Supporting a uniform beam at the Airy points produces zero angular deflection of the ends. [2] [3] The Airy points are symmetrically arranged around the centre of the length standard and are separated by a distance equal to

  9. Structural channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_channel

    Various structural steel shapes. The structural channel, C-channel or parallel flange channel (PFC), is a type of (usually structural steel) beam, used primarily in building construction and civil engineering. Its cross section consists of a wide "web", usually but not always oriented vertically, and two "flanges" at the top and bottom of the ...
