what are beams and how these are constructed? briefly introduction to beam and its members
"Beams in Structures Tutorial for Beginners: Compression and Tension Members
Welcome to our tutorial on beams in structures, designed specifically for beginners!
In this video, we'll introduce the fundamental concepts of beams, which are essential for designing and analyzing structures.
Beams are horizontal or sloping members that resist loads perpendicular to their longitudinal axis, and they're critical components in building design.
We'll cover the basics of:
- Compression members: how they work, and their role in beam design
- Tension members: their function, and how they differ from compression members
- Beam types: simply supported, cantilever, and fixed beams
- Load applications: point loads, uniformly distributed loads, and moment loads
This tutorial is perfect for:
- Students learning structural engineering and architecture
- Beginners looking to understand beam design fundamentals
- Professionals seeking a refresher on beam basics
