keskenybeam
Keskenybeam refers to a type of structural steel beam commonly used in construction, particularly in Europe. The name originates from the Finnish word *keskenyys*, meaning "midpoint" or "intermediate," which reflects its role as an intermediate beam in load-bearing frameworks. These beams are typically part of a grid system where they support floors, roofs, or other horizontal elements by distributing loads to primary structural columns or walls.
Keskenybeam is characterized by its I-shaped cross-section, similar to other standard steel beams, but it is
In engineering terms, keskenybeam is designed to meet specific load-bearing requirements, often adhering to Eurocodes or
While not exclusively Finnish, keskenybeam is particularly associated with Nordic construction due to its widespread use
