Auflageträgern
Auflageträger, also known as support beams, are structural elements designed to bear and distribute loads in various engineering and construction contexts. In German technical literature they are often referred to as “Auflageträger” in the singular and “Auflageträger” in the plural. These components can be found in buildings, bridges, industrial facilities, and storage systems, where they provide a stable foundation for overhanging structures or heavy equipment.
Typical designs include simply supported beams, cantilevers, and compound cross‑section profiles such as I‑beams or box
Key design parameters include span length, load distribution (uniform, concentrated, dynamic), deflection limits, and safety factors
Overall, Auflageträger serve as fundamental elements in structural engineering, ensuring safety, integrity, and functionality across a
