Columns, beams and girders are all part of any structure and shouldn't be moved without another support added beside it. The added support has to also be placed in a way that it will fully support whatever the column beam or girder was previously supportong
"header" is a beam (usually at least 2 2x6's) above the door in the wall to keep the weight from above from pushing down on the door and making it inoperable. the header sits on jack studs on each side of the doorway. they take the weight from above
A bressummer beam carries loads from above but has no window or door below it. Therefore its allowable deflection (long term or short loads) can be greater. A lintel on the other hand has a window or door below it and requires less deflection to ensure that the operation of the window/door is not compromised.
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.
A triple beam balance is a scale used to measuremass.
Plinth beam is provided to 1. support the wall above it 2. act as tie beam for columns
used to support the load above an opening cut into an existing masonry wall
It is any type of support beam or structure.

What size steel I beam do I need to span a 32 feet garage with a floored storage above and no posts
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.

I-beam
A horizontal beam above a door or a window is commonly refered to as a "lintel."
you will need that to calculate the strength and deflection of the beam, and also strength of the support itself
Well with a beam it allows the bridge to support the bridge
