That depends on what the beam is supporting above.
Ideally 150mm bearing is the minimum. I have seen as little as 50mm! But any engineer would frown upon this.

Will a cantilever slab have beam at its fixed end and what is the load distribution for it like triangular......?
it will need a suppot element , depper and stiffer concrete members will act as support
What is the volume of the I beam?
Depends on the dimensions of the beam. length * width * height
To remove 8 feet of load bearing wall and replace with steel beam what size beam?
With a span of only 8" you can probably use a wood beam, but without a set of plans no one can accurately answer your question.
What is advantage of beam in building?
to help support the building. also to build up the building bigger or taller depending on the size of the beam.
What is the max length of RC cantilever beams?
1.50 meter from the support is the max. safe length cantilever beam
Torque specs on main bearing beam for sr20det?
beam for sr20det?
What is the minimum anchorage length for reinforcement?
It is the length of the main bar provided at the column beam junction or column footing junction to allow for the development of stresses to its design strength.
Calculate the end bearing length for a 10 inch by 16 inch timber beam if the beam reacion is 15000lbs and the compressive stress is 300psi?
You need at least 50 square inches of bearing (at least 2x6 wall for a 10" wide beam). You also have to make sure to have proper pad below and enough studs (of filled cells) in the wall to accomodate the load.

Effective length of a beam?
the efffective length of a beam is the length along the beam at which the beam will fail when a load is acting upon it. This effective length is usually near the centre of the beam as that is where the stresses are the greatest. For example a fat chick jumping up and down on the beam would reduce the effective length dramatically as the loads are semi-constant but ginormous.
Why does a longer beam length mean greater deflection?
Deflection of beam depends upon load and length of beam. Larger the beam, larger will be it's selfweight
What is the length and the width of a sail boat?
The length is "stem to stern" or "bow to transom", and the width is "beam to beam".
What is the max length of cantilever beam?
1.50 meter from the support is the max. safe length cantilever beam
When is a beam said to be of a uniform length?
Usually this indicates an error or a misunderstanding. A single beam cannot be of uniform length.
What is the maximum span on a double 2x12 beam supporting 2x8 ceiling rafters and an acoustical ceiling?
Depends on the area above the ceiling joists. Is it a live load (living space) or dead load (just the joists with maybe an attic above)? Also, the length of the ceiling joists from the last bearing point is a factor. How much weight is bearing on the beam is the critical issue.
What is Continuous beam?
A beam that has the same porperties along its entire length.
What is the volume of the I beam?
Depends on the dimensions of the beam. length * width * height
