Ground beams in construction
Beams are structural elements that transfer loads imposed along their length to their end points where the loads are transferred to walls, columns, foundations, and so on.
Ground beams are beams that are designed to span between pad foundations, piles and so on, as an alternative to traditional foundations.

Ground beams are generally constructed from concrete, and for low-rise buildings are commonly constructed in situ, however, as this can be relatively time-consuming method, the use of precast concrete ground beams has increased.
