Which type of beam, freely supported at two points, has one or both ends extending beyond
these supports?
-
A.
Simply supported beam
-
B.
Cantilever beam
-
C.
Fixed beam
-
D.
Overhang beam
Correct Answer:
D. Overhang beam
Explanation:
An overhang beam is a specific type of structural element where the supports are not located at the very ends of the beam. While it is freely supported at two points, one or both of its sections extend past these supports, creating a cantilever-like portion beyond the bearing points. This distinguishes it from a simply supported beam, which ends exactly at its supports, or a cantilever beam, which is fixed at only one end.
