POST and LINTEL



Post or lintel refers to the use of horizontal beams that are placed above columns. They can be used to form and structure or to divide a space. The disadvantages are that they can support a limited weight before they fail; they have a weak point which is the middle of the lintel. The post and the lintel are structures that had been used by people since the stone age until today. It is the basic way to structure any building.
