  2. Cantilever - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever

    The middle example is created by an extension of a simple supported beam (such as the way a diving board is anchored and extends over the edge of a swimming pool). The bottom example is created by adding a Robin boundary condition to the beam element, which essentially adds an elastic spring to the end board. The top and bottom example may be ...

  3. Talk:Cantilever bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Cantilever_bridge

    To do this article right, I think we need to start at the basics. Examine the Wiktionary definition of cantilever; I agree with this definition: to have a cantilever, a beam (or truss) must be supported on only one end. I drew the following graphic to show two examples. The top cantilever is created with a full moment connection at the left end.

  4. Bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge

    Most cantilever bridges use a pair of continuous spans that extend from opposite sides of the supporting piers to meet at the center of the obstacle the bridge crosses. Cantilever bridges are constructed using much the same materials and techniques as beam bridges. The difference comes in the action of the forces through the bridge.

  5. Cantilever bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever_bridge

    A cantilever bridge is a bridge built using structures that project horizontally into space, supported on only one end (called cantilevers).For small footbridges, the cantilevers may be simple beams; however, large cantilever bridges designed to handle road or rail traffic use trusses built from structural steel, or box girders built from prestressed concrete.

  6. Cantilevered stairs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilevered_stairs

    A cantilever is a beam, which is anchored at only one end. Thus cantilevered stairs have a "floating" appearance, and they may be composed of different materials, such as wood, glass, stone, or stainless steel. [1]

  7. Jettying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jettying

    A double jettied timber-framed building. The ends of the multiple cantilevered joists supporting the upper floors can easily be seen.. Jettying (jetty, jutty, from Old French getee, jette) [1] is a building technique used in medieval timber-frame buildings in which an upper floor projects beyond the dimensions of the floor below.

  9. Beam bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_bridge

    Beam bridges are the simplest structural forms for bridge spans supported by an abutment or pier at each end. [1] No moments are transferred throughout the support, hence their structural type is known as simply supported.
