The pipe wrench (US),

Stillson wrench or Stillsons (UK) is
an adjustablewrench/spanner used
for turning soft iron pipes and fittings
with a rounded surface. The design
of the adjustable jaw allows it to lock
in the frame, such that any forward
pressure on the handle tends to pull
the jaws tighter together.
A statically determinate beam, bending
(sagging) under a uniformly distributed
load]] A beam is a structural element that
primarily resists loads applied laterally to
the beam's axis. Its mode of deflection is
primarily by bending. The loads applied to
the beam result in reaction forces at
the beam'ssupport points.
