vertical-load beam
1beam — beamless, adj. beamlike, adj. /beem/, n. 1. any of various relatively long pieces of metal, wood, stone, etc., manufactured or shaped esp. for use as rigid members or parts of structures or machines. 2. Building Trades. a horizontal bearing… …
2Beam (structure) — A statically determinate beam, bending (sagging) under an evenly distributed load. A beam is a horizontal structural element that is capable of withstanding load primarily by resisting bending. The bending force induced into the material of the… …
3Direct integration of a beam — Direct integration is a structural analysis method for measuring internal shear, internal moment, rotation, and deflection of a beam. Positive directions for forces acting on an element. For a beam with an applied weight w(x), taking downward to… …
4Dummy load — Cantenna dummy load suitable up to 30 MHz and up to 1 kW A dummy load is a device used to simulate an electrical load, usually for testing purposes. Contents 1 Radio …
5I-beam — I beams (also known as W beams or double T esp. in Polish and German) are beams with an I or H shaped cross section ( W stands for wide flange ). The horizontal elements are flanges, while the vertical element is the web. The Euler Bernoulli beam …

7Torsion beam suspension — A torsion bar suspension, also known as a torsion spring suspension or incorrectly torsion beam, is a general term for any vehicle suspension that uses a torsion bar as its main weight bearing spring. One end of a long metal bar is attached… …
8Structural engineering — is a field of engineering dealing with the analysis and design of structures that support or resist loads. Structural engineering is usually considered a speciality within civil engineering, but it can also be studied in its own right. [cite… …
9Framing (construction) — Framing, in construction known as light frame construction, is a building technique based around structural members, usually called studs, which provide a stable frame to which interior and exterior wall coverings are attached, and covered by a… …
10Buckling — In engineering, buckling is a failure mode characterized by a sudden failure of a structural member subjected to high compressive stresses, where the actual compressive stress at the point of failure is less than the ultimate compressive stresses …
