Arch And Stress Structures
London, Kent and Essex

Most beams in loft conversions have to be spliced beams. This is unless there is crane accessibility.  After that, the splice will make it possible for the beam to be placed a lot easier. The splice is developed stand up to the stress and compression in the bottom and leading flanges.

Most types of steel framework used in UK construction could be organised as follows:

• Braced structures, in which the beam of lights and columns are developed to withstand vertical loads only. The links are made as nominally pinned or 'straightforward'.
• Rigid or continual frameworks. The mounting structure is developed to make sure that the connections are mount-resisting.
  
• Arch frameworks, where pressures are transferred to the ground. This is mainly by compression within the structure.
  
• Tension frameworks, in which forces are moved to the ground by tension (or catenary action) and by compression in posts or poles, as in a camping tent.
  

Braced structures with basic connections and upright bracing. These offer cost-effective structural option. These are one of the most generally used structural systems in structures. Rigidly framed structures are preferred if there is no chance for the use of upright supporting. In supported structures, columns are designed to resist compression forces primarily. Columns used in stiff or constant frames are likewise made to stand up to bending.

Arch and stress structures rely on the compressible and tensile properties of steel. These comply with distinct structural concepts. Tension frameworks are frequently related to expressive outside frames. The pressure components, through cables or rods, are secured to the ground.
