Cantilever beam: It is a rigid structural element which is anchored at one end from which it protudes.
- It allows overhanging structures without external bracing.
- The cantilever beam transfers load to support, at this point it manages moment of force and shear stress.
- These beams can also be constructed with slabs or trusses.
- On its open end, the cantilever beam bears specific weight as a result of support on its enclosed end. As it is supported on one end, no break down occurs by the weight generated on beam structure due to shear stress.
- These beams result in large deflections and large moments.
