What is a "cantilever"?

A cantilever is a structural element that is supported at one end while extending horizontally beyond that support, creating an overhanging section. This design allows the cantilever to carry loads without additional support beneath it, making it useful for various applications, such as balconies, bridges, and roofs. Cantilevers rely on careful engineering to ensure stability and strength, as the unsupported portion experiences tension and bending forces. This innovative approach can create open spaces and unique architectural designs while effectively distributing weight to the supported end. Proper design and construction are essential to ensure the safety and functionality of cantilevered structures.
