A T-section concrete beam is a load-bearing structure with a T-shaped cross section. The top of the T-shaped cross section serves as a flange or compression member in resisting compressive stresses. The web (vertical section) of the beam below the compression flange serves to resist shear stress. When used for highway bridges the beam incorporates reinforcing bars in the bottom of the beam to resist the tensile stresses which occur during bending. T-section concrete beams are commonly used in construction, as they are strong and can support a lot of weight.
T-Section Concrete Beams are available in a range of sizes with widths between 18”-36” (45.7-91.4 cm) and depths from 18”-36” (45.7-91.4 cm). The concrete has a common thickness of 8” and 10” (20.3, 25.4 cm). T-Section Concrete Beams are available in typical lengths between 40’-100’ (12.2-30.5 m).
