Steel Structural Beam
Beams are capable of withstanding load primarily by resisting against bending. The bending force induced into the material of the beam as a result of the external loads, own weight, span and external reactions to these loads is called a bending moment. Beams are characterized by their profile (shape of cross-section), their length, and their material.
The basic difference between beam and column is, Beam is horizontal structural member - subjected to transverse loading and a column is vertical structural member subjected to vertical loading. Again in beam mainly bending takes place whereas in column compression and buckling takes place.
