Ngl those are some beautiful beams
- thank u i typed beams into duckduckgo image search and clicked one with beams
  
  You duckduckwent.
Partially correct. Those are beams, girders, and columns.
- A girder (/ˈɡɜːrdər/) is a beam used in construction.
  
  Specifically a girder is a beam that other beams frame into. Gravity load typically goes slab->beam->girder->columns->foundation. At least that's what I teach in my steel design classes.
Next up on Lemmy, beams and jeams
- Jean fuel can't bean steel beams.
- ur welcome!
No. I would like to go back to beans, please.
- I'm enjoying both, but go with your preference!
This is the type of strength and certainty that I crave, from steel beams

Reminiscent of an old Windows screensaver.
