Partially correct. Those are beams, girders, and columns.

A girder (/ˈɡɜːrdər/) is a beam used in construction.

WoodScientist ,

Specifically a girder is a beam that other beams frame into. Gravity load typically goes slab->beam->girder->columns->foundation. At least that’s what I teach in my steel design classes.

Sadbutdru ,

Are there any girders in the picture then? Or none, or impossible to tell? I can’t see any, by that definition.

WoodScientist ,

You can see them on the upper levels. On the bottom level, you can see the shear tabs, mounted on the girders that additional beams will frame into.

WoodScientist ,

Little known fact; heavy timber buildings will often perform better in fire than steel buildings like this.
