Description
Description

A wide flange (universal) steel beam is a structural steel beam with an I-shaped cross-section. Wide flanges have profiles with thicker flanges than web. It is commonly used in construction to support loads in buildings and bridges. Wide flange beams are available in a variety of sizes and shapes to meet the specific needs of each project. They are typically made of high-strength steel and are designed to resist bending and buckling. Wide flange beams are an important part of many construction projects and help to ensure the safety and stability of buildings and bridges.
