Re: Beam Question
Eric,
No, I'm talking about a steel beam. I agree, grouting a wood beam is not recommended.
Not all steel beams are compact. As I said earlier, a beam that has a height much greater than its width is subject to rotation. Like Jerry , most steel beams I see do not have a high height/width ratio but on occassion I do see them. Wood beams by their nature do have a high height/width ratio.
The attached image shows how rotation occurs in a steel beam.
