Advantages and applications of I-beams

The benefits of using I-beams

• Improved bearing capacity of long products
• High resistance to deformation effects
• Prolonged use of the product
• High strength characteristics of the material
• Excellent I-beam stiffness
• Product performance under significant loads
• Small specific gravity
• Simple construction
• Resistance to biological influences
• Large span bridging

The versatility of this type of rolled metal allows it to be used in the construction of interfloor ceilings, in the construction of prefabricated structures, in roof structures etc. The unique characteristics of I-beams significantly increase the possibilities of their use in architecture. Long products are widely used in the decoration of objects.

The product is most in demand in the industrial industry. Due to its low specific weight, the beam is able to evenly distribute the load on supporting structures in large-panel construction, as well as columnar metal structures, bridge floors, reinforcement, overhead tracks and many other purposes.

Very often the product is used in car building, mechanical engineering, shaft reinforcement, large-panel construction. The use of this type of rolled metal allows you to simplify any design decisions. Rolled metal has increased rigidity and wear resistance.

According to the production method, the I-beam can be welded and hot rolled.

The shape of the beam is:

• With Parallel Shelves
• Draw internal faces

In terms of strength characteristics, an I-beam is an order of magnitude higher than a corner and a square profile. Their main property is the ability to bend.
