There is a clear difference between H-beam and I-beam in use
Uses of H-beams
H-beams are mainly used in the following areas:
Steel structures for industrial and civil buildings: H-beams are often used for beams and column components, and are suitable for various building structures 12.
Steel structure load-bearing brackets for industrial structures: widely used in frame structures of industrial equipment and machinery manufacturing 12.
Steel piles and supporting structures for underground engineering: In underground engineering, H-beams are often used for steel piles and supporting structures 12.
Petrochemical and electric power and other industrial equipment structure: H-beam is also widely used in petrochemical, electric power and other industrial equipment 12.
Large-span steel bridge components: H-beam is suitable for the construction of long-span steel bridges 12.
Frame structures in shipbuilding and machinery manufacturing: In shipbuilding and machinery manufacturing, H-beams are also commonly used in frame structures 12.
Girder brackets for trains, automobiles, and tractors: In girder brackets for vehicles, H-beams are also used 12.
Port conveyor belts, highway baffle brackets: In port conveyor belts and highway baffle brackets, H-beams are also used 12.
Uses of I-beams
I-beams are mainly used in the following areas:
Various building structures: I-beams are commonly used in building beams and other building structures 34.
Bridges and Brackets: I-beams also have applications in bridge and bracket structures 4.
Machinery manufacturing : I-beams are also used in machinery manufacturing 4.
The difference between H-beam and I-beam
Cross-sectional shape: The cross-section of the H-beam is like “H”, while the cross-section of the I-beam is like the “I” 35.
Bearing capacity: The flange of H-shaped steel is widened and thick, which can carry forces in various directions; Whereas, the thickness of I-beams is thinner and can only carry a force in one direction 35.
Production process: The production process of H-beam is complex, and it is necessary to add set rolls; The production process of I-beam is relatively simple
