Steel Beams To Build Your Project Up

Depending on what sort of construct or infrastructure you intend to build, you will need a steel beam that fits your profile. There are a number of types of steel beams out there, with the following being among the most widely used.

Universal Beams

Also known as I-beams or H-beams, universal beams feature a distinctive “I” or “H” shape. They are widely used in construction and structural engineering due to their exceptional load-bearing capacity and versatility.

Universal Columns (UC)

Universal columns are similar to universal beams but have a narrower flange width. They are commonly used in applications where the load-bearing requirements are more specific and where a narrower profile is advantageous.

Parallel Flange Channels (PFC)

Parallel flange channels, also known as C-sections, have a “C” shape and are frequently used as secondary support beams in steel structures or as purlins for roofing and cladding applications.

Equal Angle (EA)

Equal angle steel beams have two equal sides that form a 90-degree angle. They are often used in construction for providing lateral support and bracing in various structures.

Tapered Flange Beams (TFB)

Tapered flange beams have a symmetrical “I” shape with tapered flanges. They offer higher strength-to-weight ratios and are suitable for projects that require efficient load distribution and reduced weight.
