    Boynton Gateway | 495 Columbia Street | Somerville

    The moment connection load of the projecting awning beam got nullified by the beam on the inside running along the ceiling line in the opposite direction. Moment connection calculations/ equal and opposite load calculations suck. I think I got a C- in my physics class. Good thing we could count...
