Steel I-Profiles / Double T-Beams
1 Product(s)I-Profiles overview
Double T-beams, also known as I-beams, are essential components in modern construction technology. These steel profiles are characterized by their characteristic I-shape, which offers both stability and lightness. The shape allows for optimal distribution of loads, making it ideal for use in structures, bridges, high-rise buildings and industrial buildings. The use of I-beams offers numerous advantages, including high load capacity, flexibility and efficiency in construction.
Technical specifications
-
Materials: Often made of structural steel S235JR (W. No. 1.0038) or S355J2
-
Dimensions: Vary depending on area of application. Typical sizes range from 80mm to 1000mm in height and 46mm to 300mm in width
-
Weight: The weight of I-beams depends on their dimensions and materials. For example, an I-beam measuring 100 x 55 x 4.1 x 5.7 mm weighs approximately 8.1 kg/m
Benefits and Applications
Advantages
-
High load capacity: The I-shape allows heavy loads to be carried without the structure losing stability.
-
Material efficiency: The steel construction reduces the overall weight of the structure, reducing transportation and installation costs.
-
Versatility: I-beams can be used in various construction projects, from residential buildings to bridges and high-rise buildings.
Applications
-
Construction industry: Used in load-bearing structures such as buildings, bridges and towers.
-
Mechanical engineering: Used in cranes and other heavy machinery where high stability is required.
-
Industrial facilities: Ideal for the construction of factory halls and warehouses where large spans and high load-bearing capacity are required.
Manufacturing and processing
I-beams are typically hot rolled. In a few exceptions, they can also be created using laser welding. This procedure we i. d. Typically used for I-beams made of stainless steel. Manufacturing lengths typically vary between 5,800 mm and 6,200 mm, but can be customized upon customer request
