The above steel beam span calculator is a versatile structural engineering tool used to calculate the bending moment in an aluminium wood or steel beam.
In this article we mainly discuss how to calculate the weight of h beam and i beam.
Will 65mm be sufficient thickness am not 100 sure how i calculate the udl of the wall above which in real terms is circa 10ft any advice assistance greatly appreciated.
And believe that a steel reinforced concrete lintel 100 x 65 x 1200mm would suffice.
Though both the lintel and beam are horizontal or flexural member yet they both are different from each other according to their structural behaviour load carrying mechanism and the purpose for which they are used.
The properties of the beam and section are specified by typing directly into the input fields.
Lintel and beam both are structural components of the structure.
Total udl the udl uniformly distributed load is the total load in kn that is uniformly distributed along the span of the lintel relative to the load ratio.
The 2100mm long lintel in example 2 is listed in this column.

If it is concrete timber or cold form you would not need a stee.
How can i calculate the steel for lintel beams i am going to assume you are asking how to adequately size a steel lintel beam.
Length of beam is the total including all spans of the beam in mm or ft.
Area of the cross section is specific to the beam section selected and is defaulted to the values.
Most interior beams need to include the roof load.
