I beam manufactured according to standard EN 10034 EN 10024 and subdivided into the following types:
h sections HEA, HEB, HEM with sizes from 100 mm to 1000 mm in height and from 100 mm to 302 mm in width of the shelf;
parallelina IPE with dimensions from 80 mm up to 600 mm high and 46 mm up to 220 mm in width of the shelf;
conventional INP with dimensions from 80 mm up to 550 mm in height and from 42 mm up to 200 mm wide shelf.
Steel I beams are used in many fields both civil and industrial construction. Most often it acts as the Foundation for a metal. It is used in the construction of structures that need to withstand a greater load and have a high degree of durability, such as bridges, floors, ramps, shafts. Also it is advisable to use steel beams in engineering and car building. In addition, the stability of I-beams to temperature changes, it is used in the construction of the premises that are not constantly heated. H-beams are used for load-bearing structures as reference guides. Beams of this type of plate is able to withstand high loads and are used in the construction of tall buildings. Due to the greater width shelves h-I-beams have a greater stiffness with respect to the axis "y", therefore they can be used in structures without additional anchoring. Design advantages, such as parallelism of the flanges and power sections allow you to apply l sections I-beams in the form of an independent element. Such an independent element does not require almost no processing, and this, in turn, reduces the complexity of fabrication, and hence their value in 2 or 3 times. H-I beam, you can make t sections for use in lattice structures, cutting shelves in the longitudinal direction.
