To reduce the near column beam section stiffness and have lateral flexibility with respect to horizontal seismic loading movements and column beam connections are not overstress.
To have a point of designated failure. You are ensuring that if failure happens, it is in the beam and not at the connection. This is necessary to avoid severe building failure that would be impossible for engineers to predict. This way, we can build for where failure will happen and even though the building would be worthless (say after an earthquake), it ensures that it will still stand and allow people to escape.

What is the purpose of camber in steel beam?
Camber is the amount of deflection provided in the opposite direction of loadings. That is when the beam is subjected to Vertical downward loadings, the beam has a tendency of deflecting downwards. In this case, camber value is to be given in the upward direction so that when it is fully loaded condition, the beam would have almost zero deflection. Similarly, when the beam is subjected to vertical upward loadings, the camber value is to be given in downward direction. The purpose of camber in steel beam is to have almost zero deflection w.r.t.o beam axis after loading of beam as highlighted earlier. by R.Ravichandran, Chennai-49

It depends on how big the bone was (is) of course, but if he got it all down then I wouldn't worry too much.

If a human were to try and eat this particular kind of dog-food then they would have to get their stomachs pumped out.
