An energy absorbing beam comprises a top plate and a bottom plate, a plurality of upper pillars extending from the top plate toward the bottom plate, a plurality of lower pillars extending from the bottom plate toward the top plate, and a first beam extending laterally between the top plate and the bottom plate and attached to the upper and lower pillars, wherein energy from an impact onto the top or bottom plate is transferred through the upper and lower pillars and absorbed by the first beam.
