Question:

What span is the maximum span for I-beam?

What span is the maximum span for I-beam?

Answer:

Steel beams as beams, the maximum span should not exceed 7 meters, if the span is now large, the bottom must be propped up with pillars.
1. determine the steel beam span, load point position and weight, make the bending moment diagram, and calculate the maximum bending moment M (MAX)2. general I-beam material is Q235, sigma (s) =2400KG/CM2, determine safety factor, generally take 1.7, [Sigma]=2400/1.7=1412KG/CM23.M (MAX) /]<=W (x), to meet the strength. W (x) refer to the mechanical design handbook for the bending modulus of i-beam.
I-beam is also called steel girder (English name Universal Beam). It is a strip of steel with an I-shaped section. I-beam is divided into ordinary I-beam and light I-beam, H steel three. It is a section steel whose shape is trough.
