Question:

What are square steel, rectangular tube, angle steel or light steel?

Are square steel, rectangular tube and angle steel shaped or light steel?

Answer:

Section steel is a kind of strip steel with definite section shape and size.In accordance with the different smelting quality of steel, steel is divided into ordinary steel and high quality steel. According to the current catalogue of metal products, ordinary steel can be divided into large section steel, medium section steel and small section steel. The section steel can be divided into I-beam, channel steel, angle steel, round steel and so on according to its sectional shape.
Large steel: large steel, I-beam, channel steel, angle steel and flat steel are hot rolled, round bar, Fang Gang, six angle iron in addition to hot rolling, there are forging, cold drawn and so on.I-beam, channel and angle steel are widely used in industrial buildings and metal structures, such as factories, bridges, ships, agricultural machinery, vehicle manufacturing, transmission towers, transport machinery, often in conjunction with the use of. Flat steel is used as a bridge, a housing, a fence, a transmission ship, a vehicle, etc. on a construction site. Round steel and square steel are used for all kinds of machine parts, agricultural machinery parts, tools and so on.Medium type steel: medium type steel, medium, groove, corner, round, flat steel use, similar to large steel.Small steel: small steel, middle, round, square, flat steel processing and use similar to large steel, small diameter round steel is often used for building steel
Light steel is also a relatively vague term, generally can have two kinds of understanding. One is the current "code for design of steel structures" (GBJ 17-88) in the eleventh chapter "bar, small angle light steel structure", refers to the use of steel and light steel structure is less than L45*4 and L56*36*4 angle steel production, mainly in the lack of time for small steel structure manufacturing of reinforced concrete structure should not be used, has been basically not used, so the revised code for design of steel structures has been basically removed this tendency. The other is the "Regulations" technology of steel structure of light-weight buildings with gabled frames with light roof and wall light (also has the condition to use the masonry wall) single portal frame structure, the light here mainly refers to the enclosure is made of light material. Since the former has been cancelled soon, the meaning of "light steel" mainly refers to the latter
