Condensation is always caused by a cold object or breeze coming into contact with warm moist air. I would look for infiltration of cold air near the ceiling beam and then try to seal the air leak.
Common causes of ceiling water damage include leaking roofs, plumbing issues, and condensation buildup. To prevent ceiling water damage, regularly inspect and maintain your roof, address any plumbing leaks promptly, and ensure proper ventilation to reduce condensation.
Condensation on the ceiling in a bathroom is commonly caused by high humidity levels from hot showers or baths. This moisture can accumulate on the cooler ceiling surface and form droplets. To prevent condensation, improve ventilation in the bathroom by using exhaust fans or opening windows during and after showering. Additionally, insulating the ceiling can help keep it warmer and reduce the likelihood of condensation forming.
What is above your ceiling. Chances are it is a leaking pipe (probably a waste pipe-ick) or condensation from around your air ducts. Is this a house? Leaking on 1st level or a basement? Is it a "drop" ceiling?
No.
I-beam
bird blocks and ridge vent
A flush beam is a beam that is flush the the surrounding floor or ceiling joists. Often held in place with metal connectors. It could be a steel 'I' beam, lvl, built up wood. It is used when ceiling height is needed to be maintained.
The maximum weight capacity that the ceiling support beam can hold in this room is 500 pounds.
A ceiling joist is a horizontal beam that supports the ceiling, while a rafter is a sloped beam that supports the roof. Ceiling joists are typically located horizontally, parallel to the ground, while rafters are angled to support the roof's pitch.
Common causes of ceiling water damage include roof leaks, plumbing leaks, condensation, and improper ventilation. Solutions typically involve identifying and fixing the source of the water intrusion, repairing the damaged area, and ensuring proper ventilation to prevent future damage.
condensation level
The condition that causes no condensation is when the relative humidity of the air is less than 100%. If the air is not saturated with moisture, then condensation will not occur.
