Post and lintel Orianna Román Gabriela Pérez
Post and Lintel, also known as “support and lintel” or “trabeated” This mechanism is being used since centuries ago. The “trabeated” system is a fundamental principle of Neolithic, Ancient Greece and Egyptian architecture.
Post It is vertical and elongated and it can support both vertical loads as horizontal forces. A column generally works under flex compression or traction. Its section is circular. A quadrangular section is usually called pillar. The classic column is formed by 3 elements: base, shaft and capital.
Construction materials: Wood Concrete Steel
Classification: • According to the relationship with other elements of the building Attached Column Embedded Column Isolated Column
According to architectonic classic orders: Doric Column Ionic Column Corinthian Column Tuscan Column Composed Column
According to the shaft of each: Smooth Column Column Ribbed Column Fasciculata Clustered Column Roman Column Roman Column
Lintel Horizontal structural element that leaves a space between two supports Opens up holes in the walls to form doors and windows Lintel Architecture
Lintel Limitellus Door, entrance, ceiling or wall Columns
Lintel • Euler-Bernoulli Theory For mechanical beam flexion Theory that allows the calculation of stresses and deformations in beams
Construction materials: Wood Concrete Steel
Characteristics: • It can take transverse loads • It works under flexion • Its supports are in its ends • Hardens the walls • Its height is equal to the thickness of the floor and its width is equal to the wall´s
Classification Foundation Beam Supported Beam Continuous Beam
Classification Ridge beam Clamping Beam Beam snub Banked Beam
Conclusion Nowadays this method is the most commonly used for the creation of the edification´s structure. The use of both column and lintel together provide rigidity to the structure, for this reason both are used as a mechanism for construction.
