Function and Application of Steel Shapes

Section steel is a special type of steel that is processed and cold bent into specific cross-sectional shapes, such as H-shaped steel, I-shaped steel, angle steel, etc. Steel profiles have high strength, stiffness, and stability, and are widely used in fields such as construction, bridges, and mechanical manufacturing. It can provide support, support, and connection functions, as well as withstand and disperse gravity and structural loads. Steel also has excellent seismic performance, making it one of the most important materials in engineering structures.

classification

According to the different smelting quality of steel, section steel is divided into ordinary section steel and high-quality section steel. Ordinary steel is divided into large steel, medium steel, and small steel according to the current metal product catalog. Ordinary steel can be divided into I-beams, channel steels, angle steels, round steels, etc. according to their cross-sectional shapes.

Large section steel: In large section steel, I-beams, channel steel, angle steel, and flat steel are all hot-rolled. In addition to hot-rolled, round steel, square steel, and hexagonal steel are also forged and cold drawn.

I-beams, channel steels, and angle steels are widely used in industrial buildings and metal structures, such as factories, bridges, ships, agricultural machinery and vehicle manufacturing, transmission towers, and transportation machinery, often used in conjunction. Flat steel is used in construction sites as a bridge, building frame, fence, power transmission vessel, vehicle, etc. Round steel and square steel are used as various mechanical parts, agricultural machinery accessories, tools, etc.

Medium section steel: Medium section steel is used for construction, groove, angle, round, and flat steel, similar to large section steel.

Small section steel: Small section steel includes angle, round, square, and flat steel, which are processed and used similar to large section steel. Small diameter round steel is commonly used as building steel bars
