Beam Depth in Design of Steel Structures Formulas

Beam Depth is the distance from the tension steel of the beam to the edge of the compression fibre. And is denoted by d. Beam Depth is usually measured using the Millimeter for Length. Note that the value of Beam Depth is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Beam Depth?

Beam Depth is the distance from the tension steel of the beam to the edge of the compression fibre. Beam Depth is usually measured using the Millimeter for Length. Note that the value of Beam Depth is always positive.

Can the Beam Depth be negative?

No, the Beam Depth, measured in Length cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Beam Depth?

Beam Depth is usually measured using the Millimeter[mm] for Length. Meter[mm], Kilometer[mm], Decimeter[mm] are the few other units in which Beam Depth can be measured.
