Window beam and the difference between the beam, there is not every layer should ring beam?
The general sill beam is provided in the lower part of the window, not continuously closed; and the ring beam is arranged on the upper part of the window and is continuously closed.
As for the ring beam is not every layer are set, according to the building in which the seismic intensity of the building, the building's seismic design level and other factors determined by the design department.
The sill is to strengthen the rigidity of the window angle (according to experience, most of the settlement of housing settlement at the corner of the octagonal shape). The reinforced concrete beams, which are also located in the windowhead position, are also called windowsill, which can be made to protrude outwardly in a beautiful shape and easy to install windows while protecting the concrete under the concrete to prevent rainwater from penetrating.
Of course there is a difference. The window beam is also called the top of the window, located in the lower part of the window. The beam is located in the upper part of the window, two are different things.
Ring beam is in the housing of the cornice, the top of the window, floor, crane beam roof or the top of the base elevation, along the masonry wall in the horizontal direction of the structure of reinforced concrete beam structure. Is a continuous closed beam that is provided along the walls of the building and around the interior wall. Its purpose is to enhance the overall stiffness of the building and the stability of the wall. The ring beam can reduce the adverse effects on the building due to uneven settlement of the foundation or the greater vibration load and the wall cracking caused by it. In the seismic fortification area, the use of ring beam reinforcement wall is even more necessary.
