👉Types of Beam

1.Cantilever Beam

One end is fixed and the other end is free.
Example: Balcony, sunshade.

2.Simply Supported Beam

Supported at both ends and free to rotate.
Example: Bridge beam, floor beam.

3.Overhanging Beam

Beam extends beyond one or both supports.
Example: Roof projection, canopy.

4.Fixed Beam

Both ends are fixed against rotation and movement.
Example: Rigid frame structures.

5.Continuous Beam

Beam rests on more than two supports.
Example: Multi-span bridges.

💫Types of Load

1.Point Load (Concentrated Load)

Load acts at a single point on the beam.

2.Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL)

Load is evenly spread over the beam length.

3.Uniformly Varying Load (UVL)

Load gradually increases or decreases along the beam.

4.Trapezoidal Load

Combination of UDL and UVL with varying intensity.

5.Moment Load (Couple Load)

Rotational force acting on a beam without vertical load.
