Abstract: Most massive stars, especially eclipsing binaries, offer a great opportunity to study their physical properties, yet they remain poorly understood. The objective of this work is to understand better the evolution and configuration of massive binaries. This is done by constraining the physical parameters of the eclipsing B-type binaries with the help of the PHOEBE, which have been observed spectroscopically and photometrically. From these values, the configuration of these systems is inferred, giving insight to the current state and past and future evolution.
