There are six types of beam. They are Cantilever beam Simply supported beam Overhanging beam Fixed beam Continuous beam Cantilever, simply supported beam Cantilever Beam - A beam which is fixed at one end and free at other end, is known as cantilever beam. Simply supported beam - A beam supported or resting on the supports at its end, is called simply supported beam. Overhanging beam - The beam, in which the end portion is extended beyond the support, is called overhanging beam. Fixed beam - A beam whose both ends are fixed or built in walls, is called fixed beam. Continuous beam - A beam which is provided more than two supports, is called beam. Cantilever, simply supported - The beam which is fixed at one end or built in walls and simply resting at the other end, is called cantilever simply supported beam. Thank you.
