Question:

Relationship between H steel and I-beam, C section steel and channel steel?

The above four should be all types of steel, but what is the relationship between H steel and I-beam, C section steel and channel steel?Is the I-beam included in the H section, or is it all the same?

Answer:

First of all, C steel after cold bending of hot coil and high strength, good tenacity, and channel production can save 30% compared to the same intensity of raw materials, is a direct channel by steel companies, the thickness is greater, it is groove shaped cross section.?Second, C steel is usually used for steel structure building wall beam, beam, bracket or other building components, widely used in the activity room, also can be used in machinery manufacturing industry. Channel steel is mainly used in building structures, vehicle manufacturing, and other industrial structures, often with the use of i-beam. Although the two steels are used in building structures, they are used in different ways.
Technically, H can be hot rolled or welded, and the I-beam is hot rolled
The shape of H steel on the lower flange far wider than I-beam
In the case of the same amount of steel, H steel can do more rigidity and stability than I-beam, and its resistance to bending and bending is better than that of I-beam
