Beam / Coating

Beams are components made of in-situ concrete, prefabricated concrete parts or wood. They can be designed as rectangular cross-sections, parapets or trough girders. They are usually installed under ceilings or columns and distribute the ceiling loads acting on them horizontally on columns. Raised spans of ceilings can be achieved through beams. In addition, offsets in the vertical load transfer can be realized.
