Camber - Composite Beams

DYork,
Cambering is typically performed through a mechanical bending process by the fabricator in the shop.
Camber is often specified when the anticipated deflection would present a serviceability issue. Typically, camber is considered for the deflection due to the dead load (although dead load and live load could also be considered together).
Good Luck.
