thank u i typed beams into duckduckgo image search and clicked one with beams
You duckduckwent.
Oh no he duckduckdidnt
Oh yes he duckduckdid.
Oh duckduckshit
I recommend you do not duckduckgo for that.
Next up on Lemmy, beams and jeams
Jean fuel can't bean steel beams.
Partially correct. Those are beams, girders, and columns.
A girder (/ˈɡɜːrdər/) is a beam used in construction.
Specifically a girder is a beam that other beams frame into. Gravity load typically goes slab->beam->girder->columns->foundation. At least that's what I teach in my steel design classes.
Are there any girders in the picture then?
Or none, or impossible to tell?
I can't see any, by that definition.
You can see them on the upper levels. On the bottom level, you can see the shear tabs, mounted on the girders that additional beams will frame into.
c/lemmyshitpost, come for the memes, stay for the lessons on construction materials
SIEZE THE MEMES OF CONSTRUCTION
Little known fact; heavy timber buildings will often perform better in fire than steel buildings like this.
Sounds like something a wood scientist would say...
I mean, I am literally working on a PhD in wood science.
Ngl those are some beautiful beams

Working for Big Wood. Story of my life.
So you wood agree?
Reminiscent of an old Windows screensaver.
but are those high or low beams?
No. I would like to go back to beans, please.
I'm enjoying both, but go with your preference!
