A cantilever can be rounded and the stones shaped to fit. The central stone is called the keystone. It is shaped like a wedge. As it slips further down between the next two stones, the keystone presses harder against the two beside it.
This shape directs the forces along the stones and down to the ground as shown to the arrows. Domes and shell structures are based on the same concept.

∙ 15y agoCantilevered is where a board, plank, or anything is hanging over its support and the only thing supporting it is the weight of the other side of the load. For example, a teeter totter. If a fat guy is on one end and a grain of sand is on the onther that grain of sand is cantilevered, because the weight of the other side of the load is supporting the grain of sand. I probably made this hard to understand feel free to modify/change this if you have a better definition.

What are the benefits of a cantilever umbrella?
A cantilevered umbrella can be bent, or cantilevered, so that it is angling between the sun and the table. In this way you are in shade. They are usually more expensive.
Is a shelf support a simple machine?
No, a shelf support is likely a cantilevered beam, that is not a simple machine. Simple machines exploit leverage to increase or change the direction of force, a cantilevered beam merely supports a force.

What is the cantilevered section of a deck?
under the deck there will be a supporting beam, anything hanging out beyond this beam is the cantilever. some decks are fully cantilevered (they are attached to floor joists in the house and have no support posts/beams under them). these are usually no more than 4 feet long.

What exactly are offset umbrellas?
The offset umbrellas are also known by the names of cantilevered umbrella. It is where the bumper part, the part that keeps the rain off of you, is not directly above the shoot. The shoot is the handle.
Where does the maximum bending moment occur?
Picture a beam cantilevered out from a wall with a weight hung off the outer end. The place it would need to resist bending the most is right next to the wall
Why crown moulding in roofing?
I've run into this on quite a few older architectural gems with spaced roof boards and cedar shakes as the original roof. The crown molding runs at a 45 degree angle from the fascia to the underside of the leading edge of the first roof board. The first roof board is cantilevered just enough to provide a nailer for the top of the crown molding. The trim serves no purpose other than it's ornamental effect and support for the outer edge of the cantilevered first roof board.
