Steel H Beam
Beams come in different shapes and sizes. A construction beam is a structural element that bears load by resisting bending from downward forces. Its horizontal span is much broader than its width or depth. Beams are characterized by their profile, length and material.The most common types resemble a Capital I or a Capital H. They are generally used in construction, civil engineering, heavy machinery, truck construction and other heavy duty tasks. Beam is mostly used to support heavy structures. Beam is available in Aluminum, Stainless Steel and Hot Rolled varieties.
Designation and terminology
•In the United States, Steel I Beams are commonly specified using the depth and weight of the beam. For example, a "W10x22" beam is approximately 10 in (25 cm) in depth (nominal height of the I-beam from the outer face of one flange to the outer face of the other flange) and weighs 22 lb/ft (33 kg/m). It should be noted that wide flange section often vary from their nominal depth. In the case of the W14 series, they may be as deep as 22.84 in (58.0 cm).
•In Mexico, steel I-beams are called IR and commonly specified using the depth and weight of the beam in metric terms. For example, a "IR250x33" beam is approximately 250 mm (9.8 in) in depth (height of the I-beam from the outer face of one flange to the outer face of the other flange) and weighs approximately 33 kg/m (22 lb/ft).
How to measure:
Height (A) X Web (B) X Flange Width (C)
M = Steel Junior Beam or Bantam Beam
S = Standar Steel I Beam
W = Standar Wide Flange Beam
H-Pile = H-Pile Beam
We work extensively with many of the world’s leading solar tracker and frame manufacturers to help them enrich their size range and reduce logistics costs. By working with us, array system suppliers can optimize their price products and delivery schedules to ensure competitive advantage.
The material is made of American standard wide-flange H Beam with the size standard of ASTM A6. The steel grade can be selected between ASTM A572 GR50 /GR60, ASTM A992 or Q355. The hot-dip galvanizing meets ASTM A123, ISO1461 and AS/NZS4680 standards. Of course, we are also happy to meet other quality standards and different HDG coating thickness for our customers, as it is our tradition to quickly respond to customer needs and act immediately. The company’s long-term inventory of the common specifications of the WF beam 2000 tons, to meet the customer’s fastest delivery requirements.
We cherish our customers’ projects as we cherish our own products. We work with our customers from the start of the project, Better packaging and loading solutions, more flexible delivery schedules and third-party inspections will all receive the same attention here.
