Product Introduction

I-beam is an economical section steel with better mechanical properties, and its characteristics are as follows: Wide flange and high lateral stiffness. Strong bending resistance. The two surfaces of the flange are parallel to each other, making it easy to connect, process, and install. Compared with general section steel, it has low cost, high accuracy, low residual stress, no need for expensive welding materials and weld seam testing, and saves.

Advantages of I-Beams

Bears Higher Loads – The design of an I-beam makes it capable of bending under high stress instead of buckling. As the beam receives the load, the force is transmitted perpendicularly, thus supporting other members of the beams.

Has a High Moment of Inertia – The section at the center of the beam, or the neutral axis, does not resist bending due to the uniform distribution of the weight across the beam. Due to the distance between the flange and the axis, I-beams have a high moment of inertia.

Helps in Fabrication – Metal fabrication involves the cutting, bending, and shaping of structural steel. I-beams are very versatile and can be used in any steel construction projects. I beam steel fabrication is fast, efficient, and affordable to fulfil the orders and meet the demands of the project.

Reduces, Reuses, and Recycles – The production of I beams means minimum waste during construction. There are green practices in different countries making I-beam affordable. Almost half of the world’s steel is produced in electric plants to generate no CO2 emissions. Steel products can be recycled over and over again without compromising on their strength.

We have our own Physical & Chemical Testing Center Lab to guarantee our product quality. Our test items & instrument fully meet international standards.

Applications of I-Beams

• For bridges: One of the primary uses of I-beams is in the construction of bridges. Bridges require materials that are strong, durable, and able to withstand high amounts of stress. I-beams are ideal for bridge construction because they can support large amounts of weight over long distances. The vertical web of an I-beam helps to distribute the weight evenly, while the horizontal flanges provide support.

• For buildings: Another important use of I-beams is in the construction of buildings. The use of I-beams in building construction has increased in recent years due to their strength and durability. I-beams are used to create load-bearing walls and support beams, which help to distribute the weight of the building evenly. They are also used in the construction of roofs and floors, providing support for the building's structure.

• For manufacturing and automotive industries: I-beams are also commonly used in the manufacturing and automotive industries. In manufacturing, I-beams are used to create conveyor systems, scaffolding, and industrial equipment. The automotive industry uses I-beams to create car frames and support structures. I-beams provide the necessary strength and durability to withstand the harsh conditions of manufacturing and automotive production.

• For aesthetic purposes: In addition to their structural uses, I-beams are also used in artistic and decorative applications. They can be used as decorative features in building facades or as sculptures in public spaces. The clean lines and modern aesthetic of I-beams make them a popular choice for contemporary design.
