Beam

Task type "Beam" is suitable for the comprehensive analysis of general horizontal beam. Only single axis bending is supported in this task type.

The main frame of beam analysis contains these inputs:

Member length	Total member length specified in metres.
Limit fire resistance period	Fire resistance in minutes, results in part "Analysis" are compared with this value.
Temperature curve	The choice of the temperature curve, that is used for the determination of the temperature of gas in time, in the window "Temperature curve".

The beam design contains these parts:

General work with beams (addition, manipulation) is described in the chapter "Tree menu".
