  2. Span (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Span_(engineering)

    In engineering, span is the distance between two adjacent structural supports (e.g., two piers) of a structural member (e.g., a beam). Span is measured in the horizontal direction either between the faces of the supports (clear span) or between the centers of the bearing surfaces (effective span): [1] A span can be closed by a solid beam or by ...

  3. 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. The simplest beam bridge could be a log (see log bridge), a wood plank, or a stone slab (see clapper bridge) laid

  4. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_(structure)

    A stiffer beam (high modulus of elasticity and/or one of higher second moment of area) creates less deflection. Mathematical methods for determining the beam forces (internal forces of the beam and the forces that are imposed on the beam support) include the "moment distribution method", the force or flexibility method and the direct stiffness ...

  5. Bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge

    Beam bridge: Beam bridges are horizontal beams supported at each end by substructure units and can be either simply supported when the beams only connect across a single span, or continuous when the beams are connected across two or more spans. When there are multiple spans, the intermediate supports are known as piers. The earliest beam ...

    The loads applied to the beam result in reaction forces at the beam's support points. The total effect of all the forces acting on the beam is to produce shear forces and bending moments within the beam, that in turn induce internal stresses, strains and deflections of the beam. Beams are characterized by their manner of support, profile (shape ...

  7. Structural support - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_support

    It is a rigid type of support or connection. The application of the fixed support is beneficial when we can only use single support, and people most widely used this type as the only support for a cantilever. [7] They are common in beam-to-column connections of moment-resisting steel frames and beam, column and slab connections in concrete frames.

  8. Influence line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Influence_line

    Figure 1: (a) This simple supported beam is shown with a unit load placed a distance x from the left end. Its influence lines for four different functions: (b) the reaction at the left support (denoted A), (c) the reaction at the right support (denoted C), (d) one for shear at a point B along the beam, and (e) one for moment also at point B. Figure 2: The change in Bending Moment in a ...

  9. Trestle bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trestle_bridge

    A trestle bridge is a bridge composed of a number of short spans supported by closely spaced frames. A trestle (sometimes tressel) is a rigid frame used as a support, historically a tripod used to support a stool or a pair of isosceles triangles joined at their apices by a plank or beam such as the support structure for a trestle table.
