β Sheets in proteins contain 2 to as many as 22 polypeptide strands, with an average of 6 strands. 

Each strand may contain up to 15 residues, the average being 6 residues.

Each single strand of the b-sheet structure can be pictured as a twofold helix, that is, a helix with two residues per turn.

The arrangement of successive amide planes has a pleated appearance due to the tetrahedral nature of the Ca atom.

Parallel sheets are typically large structures; those composed of fewer than five strands are rare. 

Antiparallel sheets may consist of as few as two strands.
