2. Structural steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

   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 ...

3. Steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_grades

   European standard steel grades EN 10027-1 steel grade designation system. European standard steel grade names fall into two categories: Steel specified by purpose of use and mechanical properties. Steel specified by chemical composition. The inclusion of a letter 'G' before the code indicates the steel is specified in the form of a casting.

4. Hollow structural section - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_structural_section

   A hot-rolled HSS-box section cut open with a bandsaw, demonstrating residual stress. A hollow structural section ( HSS) is a type of metal profile with a hollow cross section. The term is used predominantly in the United States, or other countries which follow US construction or engineering terminology. HSS members can be circular, square, or ...

5. Structural channel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_channel

   Structural channel. The structural channel, also known as a 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 ...

6. Cold-formed steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold-formed_steel

   Cold-formed steel, especially in the form of thin gauge sheets, is commonly used in the construction industry for structural or non-structural items such as columns, beams, joists, studs, floor decking, built-up sections and other components. Such uses have become more and more popular in the US since their standardization in 1946.

7. I-beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

   An I-beam used to support the first floor of a house. An I-beam is any of various structural members with an 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).

8. SAE steel grades - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_steel_grades

   The SAE steel grades system is a standard alloy numbering system (SAE J1086 – Numbering Metals and Alloys) for steel grades maintained by SAE International . In the 1930s and 1940s, the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) and SAE were both involved in efforts to standardize such a numbering system for steels.

9. Section beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_beam

   Section Beams are made of steel and they have a specific lengths and shapes like I-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. Joints. There are three connection types: Rivets; Bolts; Welding; Rivets are the strongest and most common type.
