What is a "hammerbeam roof"?

A hammerbeam roof is a type of roof structure where horizontal beams extend out from the walls into the interior of the building to support the roof. This design eliminates the need for support columns in the center, creating a spacious and open area below. Hammerbeams are often elaborately decorated and transfer the weight of the roof to the walls. This roof style allows for high ceilings and a striking architectural appearance, combining strength and beauty in its design. It is commonly used in large buildings like churches and great halls.
