Examples of cantilever
cantilever
Current AFM scans surfaces with a thin cantilever with a sharp tip at the end.

Once the concrete formwork was removed, the cantilever developed a noticeable sag.

Without cantilever transducers, atomic force microscopy would not be possible.

Likewise, a heater temperature calibration was performed for each cantilever.

Cantilever construction allows for overhanging structures without external bracing.

Located under the cantilever is a transistor, which is the sensor's electrical part.

Harris measured the force exerted on the cantilever arm each time an I27 was unfolded.

A clean glass cover slip was mounted on the lateral edge of the cantilever.

It does not cantilever out over the upper deck as much as the original did.

- Project as a cantilever
- Projecting horizontal beam fixed at one end only
- Construct with girders and beams such that only one end is fixed; "Frank Lloyd Wright liked to cantilever his buildings"
- A cantilever is a beam supported on only one end. The beam carries the load to the support where it is resisted by moment and shear stress. Cantilever construction allows for overhanging structures without external bracing. Cantilevers can also be constructed with trusses or slabs.
- The cantilever is a figure skating element. Similar to the spread eagle, the skater travels along a deep edge. With knees bent, the skater bends his or her back backwards, parallel to the ice.
- (cantilevered) structure that projects or hovers in space seemingly without support from beneath
- A projecting beam or other structure supported only at one end. Any part of a structure that projects beyond its main support and is balanced on it.
- An overhang. Where one floor extends beyond and over a foundation wall. For example at a fireplace location or bay window cantilever. Normally, not extending over 2 feet.
- A dental prosthesis, usually a fixed bridge, where the fake tooth (pontic) is supported by abutments or retainers on just one side.
