The CivilWeb Castellated Beam Design Spreadsheet includes all the tools required for the design of standard castellated beam sections made from I beams or RSJ beams.
CivilWeb Castellated Beam Design Spreadsheet The holes in castellated beams also make it easy to install electrical, water and other services which are able to pass through the beam without installing new holes and weakening the section. This allows the castellated beam to achieve a very high strength to weight ratio at an economical cost. The process of cutting the I shaped beam apart and welding back together to create a deeper beam increases the bending resistance of the section without adding any additional steel material or any corresponding weight. Castellated beams are very well suited to beams subject to high bending moments. In some cases such as where a beam is required to resist large bending moments, this arrangement can provide a more economical beam by creating a deeper beam and removing steel from the web where it is not required.Ĭastellated beams have been in use for more than 50 years and continue to be used regularly today. This suite can also be purchased at the bottom of this page.Ĭastellated beams consist of standard sized I shaped beams which are then cut in a zig-zag pattern and rearranged to form a deeper beam with diamond or hexagon shaped holes through the web.
