Product Description
H-beam is a type of structural steel beam made from rolled steel. It has wide flanges that create a cross-section resembling an uppercase H and is used extensively in metal construction.
What Are H-Beams Used For?
H-beams are used for all types of metal constructions. From small applications like trailers and big applications like tall steel buildings, the wide flange design and welded construction give H-beams an unparalleled strength-to-weight ratio.
The flanges of an H-beam are almost as wide as the height of the web, giving the beam an almost square cross-section. This increases the surface area making the beam more resistant to buckling which is why it is primarily used vertically as a column in steel structures.
What is the Difference Between an H-Beam and an I-Beam?
I-beams and H-beams use very different proportions of the web to flange size. Each cross-section has its advantages making them suitable for different applications.
I-beams-or S-beams depending on who you ask-have a thin and tall web with thicker flanges that are tapered at an inclination of 1:10. The flanges are quite narrow compared to the web height which is what gives them the cross-sectional shape of an uppercase I.
While they do have high strength-to-weight properties and high resistance to bending, they lack torsional strength. They are often used for support frames and columns for elevators, trailers, trolley ways, and hoists.
An H-beam is pound-for-pound stronger than an I-beam and well-suited to extreme environments. In addition to withstanding direct and tensile loads, H-beams generally lower the overall project cost vs I-beams because they can span longer distances with fewer support columns.
