  2. Flitch beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flitch_beam

    A flitch beam (or flitched beam) is a compound beam used in the construction of houses, decks, and other primarily wood-frame structures. Typically, the flitch beam is made up of a vertical steel plate sandwiched between two wood beams, the three layers being held together with bolts. In that common form it is sometimes referenced as a steel ...

  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. Timber roof truss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_roof_truss

    Key: 1: principal rafters, 2: collar beam, 3: arch braces. Lacking a tie beam, [11] the arch-braced (arched brace) [12] truss gives a more open look to the interior of the roof. The principal rafters are linked by a collar beam supported by a pair of arch braces, which stiffen the structure and help to transmit the weight of the roof down ...

  5. Deck (bridge) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_(bridge)

    A slab deck is one where the deck is analyzed as a plate. If the slab has a stiffness that is different in two directions (at right angles), then the deck is known and analyzed as an orthotropic deck. A beam and slab deck is one where the beams may deflect somewhat independently, and any transverse forces are carried in the deck. A cellular ...

  6. Beam (structure) - Wikipedia

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

    A beam is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally across the beam's axis (an element designed to carry a load pushing parallel to its axis would be a strut or column). Its mode of deflection is primarily by bending , as loads produce reaction forces at the beam's support points and internal bending moments , shear ...

  7. Lumber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumber

    They function as beams to provide support over large spans, such as removed support walls and garage door openings, places where dimensional lumber is insufficient, and also in areas where a heavy load is bearing from a floor, wall or roof above on a somewhat short span where dimensional lumber is impractical.
