why breadth of beam is shorter than (or equal to )its depth?

Answer Posted / dhiyan

because of the BMD the stability of the beam shoud be more in
depth ....so for a good construction of beam the depth of the
beam should always more than the width....
eg: take a scale and place it in a manner like depth less
than the width load applied on the scale the scale will
bend , when the depth increased as change in their
direction ,it will with stand the load...
