- Cantilever - Wikipedia
A cantilever is a structural element that is firmly attached to a fixed structure at one end and is unsupported at the other end Sometimes it projects from a vertical surface such as a wall A cantilever can be in the form of a beam, plate, truss, or slab
- CANTILEVER Definition Meaning - Merriam-Webster
: either of the two beams or trusses that project from piers toward each other and that when joined directly or by a suspended connecting member form a span of a cantilever bridge

A cantilever is a vital element in civil construction and structural engineering It is a rigid structural member that extends horizontally and is supported only at one end
- Cantilever | Construction, Engineering, Design | Britannica
cantilever, beam supported at one end and carrying a load at the other end or distributed along the unsupported portion The upper half of the thickness of such a beam is subjected to tensile stress, tending to elongate the fibres, the lower half to compressive stress, tending to crush them
- Everything You Should Know About Cantilever Beams
In a building, a cantilever is constructed as an extension of a continuous beam, and in bridges, it is a segment of a cantilever girder It can be constructed either cast-in-situ or by segmental construction by pre-stressing methods
- What is Cantilever Beam? | Shear Force and Bending Moment Diagram of . . .
A cantilever beam is a rigid bar or beam whose one end is free while the other end is fixed to a support (usually a vertical wall or structure) The load acting on the beam’s free end creates a bending moment and reaction force on the fixed end
- What is a Cantilever? (with pictures) - AllTheScience
A cantilever is a beam that is supported at only one end and carries a load at the other end Cantilevers are often used in architecture, as they allow for overhanging structures that do not need to be supported from the outside
