(civil engineering)

A beam resting upon several supports, which may be in the same horizontal plane.

A beam having several spans in one straight line; generally has at least three supports.

continuous beam

A beam which extends over three or more supports, joined together so that, for a given load on one span, the effect on the other spans can be calculated.
