2. Structural steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

   Structural steel is a category of steel used for making construction materials in a variety of shapes. Many structural steel shapes take the form of an elongated beam having a profile of a specific cross section. Structural steel shapes, sizes, chemical composition, mechanical properties such as strengths, storage practices, etc., are regulated ...

3. I-beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

   An I-beam is any of various structural members with an Ɪ- (serif capital letter 'I') or H-shaped cross-section. Technical terms for similar items include H-beam, I-profile, universal column (UC), w-beam (for "wide flange"), universal beam (UB), rolled steel joist (RSJ), or double-T (especially in Polish, Bulgarian, Spanish, Italian, and German).

4. Hollow structural section - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_structural_section

   In the recent past, HSS was commonly available in mild steel, such as A500 grade B. Today, HSS is commonly available in mild steel, A500 grade C. Other steel grades available for HSS are A847 (weathering steel), A1065 (large sections up to 50 inch sq made with SAW process), and recently approved A1085 (higher strength, tighter tolerances than ...

5. Structural channel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_channel

   Various structural steel shapes. The structural channel, C-channel or parallel flange channel (PFC), is a type of (usually structural steel) beam, used primarily in building construction and civil engineering. Its cross section consists of a wide "web", usually but not always oriented vertically, and two "flanges" at the top and bottom of the ...

6. Section beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_beam

   Section Beams are made of steel and they have a specific lengths and shapes like Ɪ-beam, 'L', C-channel and I flanged beam. These types of section are usually used in steel structures and it is common to connect them with plates of steel.

7. T-beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-beam

   Unlike an I-beam, a T-beam lacks a bottom flange, which carries savings in terms of materials, but at the loss of resistance to tensile forces. [5] T- beam designs come in many sizes, lengths and widths to suit where they are to be used (eg highway bridge, underground parking garage) and how they have to resist the tension, compression and shear stresses associated with beam bending in their ...
