Question:

What's the difference between I-beam and H steel? What's the weight of the same size?

What's the difference between I-beam and H steel? What's the weight of the same size?

Answer:

In the same load capacity, high frequency welded H steel is less steel than I-beam, that is to say, H steel is lighter, but the cost performance is very high
The section modulus of the two section, close to H type steel section modulus meters heavy, better mechanical properties, but the price is high and less, H steel are regular factory production, stability index.
H type steel with flange width, and narrow distinction, respectively represented by HW, HM, HN and web and flange size, species diversity, such as HM500x300x11x15, on behalf of waist high 500mm, 11mm thickness, flange width 300mm, thickness 18mm, this is in fact the theory of value with the actual deviation will beIt's impossible to have the same sizes of I-beam and H.
The flange of H steel is flat, with no change in thickness, while the flange of I-beam is gradually thinned from the root to the edge, with a certain angle, which distinguishes them from the salient features. In addition, the model is Arabia digital I-beam with its waist high cm number to represent, encounter with waist high in the type of a, B, C to distinguish, such as 20a, 20b, 32c, the former two waist height is 20cm, and the web, flange thickness and different width of flange;
