Method of setting the structural system
 Inverted beam uses: -
1- Most popular inverted beams at the entrance to the garage so as not to
hinder the entry and exit of cars.

7/10/2020 Eng - Mahmoud Gaber 16

Method of setting the structural system
 Inverted beam uses: -
2- It can be used at the end of the balconies, so that they are not stuck in the balcony of
the lower floor

Method of setting the structural system
 Inverted beam uses: -

3- In the roof of the last floor on the destinations to help prevent rain (a course)

Dimension of Beams
 Width
 The width of the beam depends on the width of the wall of the buildings the beam holds:
 if the walls are external (width = 25 cm), the width of the beam will be 25 cm
 If the walls are internal (width = 12 cm), the width of the beam is 12 cm
Method of setting the structural system
 NOTS
• Each beam must be balanced.
Method of setting the structural system
 NOTS
• The sector stiffness of the beam must be greater than the sector stiffness
of the beam
