    It consists of a steel strand which is similar to the strand used in post-tensioned concrete. Beam – is a structural element that primarily resists loads applied laterally to the beam's axis. Its mode of deflection is primarily by bending. The loads applied to the beam result in reaction forces at the beam's support points.

  3. I-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    The dimension of a wide-flange I-beam. In the United States, steel I-beams are commonly specified using the depth and weight of the beam. For example, a "W10x22" beam is approximately 10 in (254 mm) in depth with a nominal height of the I-beam from the outer face of one flange to the outer face of the other flange, and weighs 22 lb/ft (33 kg/m).

    corrosion-resistant [steel] Largely synonymous with stainless steel, unless specific grades, specs, and distinctions are made on the drawing. Some people treat CRES as a subset of the stainless steels. CRS: cold rolled steel; on centres: Defines centre-to-centre distance of two features, such as two holes.

  5. Structural steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    Steel never turns into a liquid below this temperature. Pure Iron ('Steel' with 0% Carbon) starts to melt at 1,492 °C (2,718 °F), and is completely liquid upon reaching 1,539 °C (2,802 °F). Steel with 2.1% Carbon by weight begins melting at 1,130 °C (2,070 °F), and is completely molten upon reaching 1,315 °C (2,399 °F).

  6. Eurocode 3: Design of steel structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_3:_Design_of...

    EN 1993-6 gives principles and application rules for the structural design of crane runaway beams and other crane supporting structures including columns and other member fabricated from steel. This part is intended to be used with Eurocode EN 1991 -1 and it covers overhead crane runaways inside buildings and outdoor overhead crane runaways.

  7. 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.

  8. Steel grades - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

    In addition to the descriptive steel grade naming system indicated above, within EN 10027-2 is defined a system for creating unique steel grade numbers. While less descriptive and intuitive than the grand names they are easier to tabulate and use in data processing applications.

  9. Cellular beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_beam

    Cellular beam is a further development of the traditional castellated beam. [1] The advantage of the steel beam castellation process is that it increases strength without adding weight, making both versions an inexpensive solution to achieve maximum structural load capacity in building construction. [2] The difference between cellular beam and ...
