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.

What do you need to use as a beam to span twenty feet on a deck?
Use a steel beam.. That would be code.. steel w10x15 (50ksi) I beam.
Name of a steel beam used to support a ceiling or floor?
I-beam
What is the difference between the singly reinforced beam and doubly reinforced beam?
A singly reinforced beam only has steel reinforcement on the tension side (along the bottom of the cross section) where as a doubly reinforced beam has steel reinforcement on both the tension and compression sides, ie. the top and bottom of the cross section.
Who is the inventor of the steel you beam?
ben Franklin
How much steel reinforcement used 1KN?
The steel reinforcement used will depend on several factors. Column length, beam length, and the column and beam cross section all depend on how much steel will be needed.
What is the purpose of a track control arm on a car?
Enables adjustment of the camber angle Enables adjustment of the camber angle
What is the purpose of compression reinforcement in beams?
Steel is stronger than concrete. By adding some reinforcement in the compression zone of a beam, it's bending strength can be increased without increasing the size of the beam. The steel increases the compression strength, while the concrete prevents the slender steel bars from buckling.

Different sections of beam?
Among our handy steel beam tables you can find standard beams' dimensions and beams' weights, steel hollow sections tables and other steel profiles data.
Is density of you beam the same with density of steel?
The density of a substance stays the same, no matter how much space it takes up.
What is the difference between the singly reinforced beam and doubly reinforced beam?
