As this is "only" a suspended ceiling, it seems unlikely these are actual "beams" (girders?) — however, 85 mm is quite a large dimension for many suspended ceilings I've come across, so maybe we are missing some context here? I'd tend to be thinking more of concrete reinforcing, for example (as in you other question).

I see this as some kind of 'primary framework structure' made of presumably lightweight I-sections that will form the base for the suspended ceiling; what lies above it we do not know, although it might helps us if we could visualise it better.
The 'crochets' are usually the things that the actual suspended ceiling itself hangs from — and the ceiling structure is usually a very lightweight 'grid' in 'inverted T' sections into which the ceiling tiles sit; it has little intrinsic strength, but stays in place because of the very many points at which it is suspended from the framework above.

: In the absence of proper context, it's difficult to see how these could be actual 'beams' — though if they were, they could indeed be 85 mm deep (quite small, as beams go!)

: possible, but 1) that would be an overkill for most suspended ceiling 2) the I shape is of no good for the visible part of the suspended ceiling - more context needed.
