What is the definition of a overhanging beam?
An overhanging beam is a beam that extends beyond its support at one or both ends. Unlike a regular beam that's fully supported, an overhanging beam has parts that stick out past where it’s held up.
This design is great for creating features like balconies or eaves, allowing spaces to extend outward. Overhanging beams deal with bending moments and shear forces, similar to cantilever beams, so they need careful planning to ensure they can handle the loads they carry. You’ll often see them in bridges and buildings, providing both functionality and a stylish look while keeping everything
