Beams are classified as:

a}  Simple Beam

b)  Continuous Beam

c)  Semi­Continuous Beam

Simple Beam: Refers to the beam having a single span supported at its end without a restraint at the
support. Simple beam is sometimes called as simply supported beam. Restraint means a rigid connection or
anchorage at the support.

T – Beam: ­When floor slabs and beams. are poured simultaneously  producing a monolithic structure where
the portion of the slab at both sides of the beam serves as flanges of the T­Beam. The beam below the slab
serves as the web member and is sometime called stem.
