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. 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 .

4. Parallel-strand lumber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel-strand_lumber

   The beams are continuously formed, so the length of the beam is limited only to the maximum length that can be handled and transported. Typical widths are 3 + 1 ⁄ 2 , 5 + 1 ⁄ 4 or 7 inches (89, 133 or 178 mm); typical depths are 9 + 1 ⁄ 2 , 11 + 7 ⁄ 8 , 14, 16 and 18 inches (240, 300, 360, 410 and 460 mm).

5. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

   The deflection at any point, , along the span of a center loaded simply supported beam can be calculated using: [1] = for The special case of elastic deflection at the midpoint C of a beam, loaded at its center, supported by two simple supports is then given by: [ 1 ] δ C = F L 3 48 E I {\displaystyle \delta _{C}={\frac {FL^{3}}{48EI}}} where

6. DIN 1025 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DIN_1025

   DIN 1025 is a DIN standard which defines the dimensions, masses and sectional properties of hot rolled I-beams. The standard is divided in 5 parts: DIN 1025-1: Hot rolled I-sections - Part 1: Narrow flange I-sections, I-serie - Dimensions, masses, sectional properties; DIN 1025-2: Hot rolled I-beams - Part 2: Wide flange I-beams, IPB-serie ...

7. Hammerbeam roof - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammerbeam_roof

   A hammer-beam is a form of timber roof truss, allowing a hammerbeam roof to span greater than the length of any individual piece of timber.In place of a normal tie beam spanning the entire width of the roof, short beams – the hammer beams – are supported by curved braces from the wall, and hammer posts or arch-braces are built on top to support the rafters and typically a collar beam.

8. Double tee - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_tee

   Diagram of double tee beam. A double tee or double-T beam is a load-bearing structure that resembles two T-beams connected to each other side by side. The strong bond of the flange (horizontal section) and the two webs (vertical members, also known as stems) creates a structure that is capable of withstanding high loads while having a long span.

9. Sandwich theory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_theory

   For simple geometries such as double span beams under uniformly distributed loads, the governing equations can be solved by using appropriate boundary conditions and using the superposition principle. Such results are listed in the standard DIN EN 14509:2006 [5] (Table E10.1). Energy methods may also be used to compute solutions directly.
