‌H-Beam Steel: Economical Structural Solution for High-Load Construction Projects‌

H-beam steel, a cost-efficient structural profile, delivers superior load-bearing capacity through its optimized I-shaped cross-section. With parallel inner/outer flanges and right-angled edges, it reduces material usage by 30–40% compared to standard I-beams while maintaining 25% higher weld/rivet efficiency. Compliant with ASTM A6, EN 10025, and JIS G3192 standards, H-beams are engineered for skyscrapers, industrial platforms, bridge trusses, and offshore drilling rigs.

‌Key Technical Specifications & Manufacturing Excellence‌

‌Materials & Standards:‌

‌Dimensions & Production:‌

• ‌Flange Width‌: 100–900 mm
• ‌Web Height‌: 100–400 mm
• ‌Thickness‌: 6–40 mm (hot-rolled), 3–25 mm (welded)
• ‌Length‌: 6m/12m standard; custom lengths up to 18m
• ‌Tolerances‌: ±2% on web/flange thickness; ±0.5° on right-angle edges

‌Certifications‌: ISO 9001:2015, CE, SGS, and mill-validated chemical/mechanical test reports.

‌Mechanical Advantages Over Traditional I-Beams‌

1. ‌28–32% Higher Section Modulus‌: Resists bending stress in long-span applications.
2. ‌Uniform Stress Distribution‌: Web/flange thickness ratio (1:1.2–1.3) prevents localized deformation.
3. ‌Weight Reduction‌: Saves 1.2–1.5 tons per 10m span vs. solid girders.
4. ‌Corrosion Resistance‌: Optional hot-dip galvanizing (610 g/m² coating) or epoxy painting.

‌Industrial Applications & Case Studies‌

H-beams are indispensable across heavy industries:

• ‌Civil Engineering‌: Suspended ceilings (H200×200), stadium roof supports (H400×400).
• ‌Transportation‌: Rail viaducts (H900×300), cargo ship bulkheads (H350×175).
• ‌Energy‌: Wind turbine towers (H500×200), oil refinery pipe racks (H300×300).

‌Project Highlight‌: In the Shanghai Tower construction, H350×250 beams reduced total steel consumption by 12,000 tons while meeting 8.0 seismic resistance standards.

‌Customization & Quality Assurance‌

‌Processing Services‌:

• Plasma/Laser cutting (±0.8mm accuracy).
• Pre-drilled bolt holes (ISO 898-1 Class 8.8 compliant).
• Shot blasting (Sa2.5 grade surface preparation).

‌Testing Protocols‌:

1. ‌Ultrasonic Testing (UT)‌: Detects internal flaws (≥Φ2mm defects).
2. ‌Charpy V-Notch Test‌: -20°C impact energy ≥27J (EN 10045-1).
3. ‌Flange Flatness Check‌: ≤0.15% deviation over 3m length.
