Partially correct. Those are beams, girders, and columns.

A girder (/ˈɡɜːrdər/) is a beam used in construction.

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] Sadbutdru@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

Are there any girders in the picture then? Or none, or impossible to tell? I can't see any, by that definition.

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

You can see them on the upper levels. On the bottom level, you can see the shear tabs, mounted on the girders that additional beams will frame into.

Little known fact; heavy timber buildings will often perform better in fire than steel buildings like this.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

Sounds like something a wood scientist would say...

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I mean, I am literally working on a PhD in wood science.

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Working for Big Wood. Story of my life.

[-] Greg@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 months ago
