What is a "balk"?
A balk is a structural element that serves as a beam or horizontal support, typically found in the framing of a building or in flooring systems. It is usually made from wood or metal and helps to support the weight of floors or ceilings above. Balks are commonly placed perpendicular to the joists, distributing loads evenly across the structure and preventing sagging or collapse. They can vary in size and design based on the specific requirements of the construction project. Proper installation of balks is essential for maintaining the stability and strength of a building.
