Common steel types and fabrications used in structural steel constructions
Structural steel beams are the main horizontal support members in a steel structure. They can be made in a variety of shapes, such as I-beams, H-beams, and wide flange beams, to suit different load-bearing requirements.
Columns are the main vertical support members in a steel structure. They can be made in a variety of shapes, such as square, rectangular, or circular, to suit different load-bearing requirements.
Girders are large beams that are used to span long distances, such as in bridges or large industrial buildings.
Trusses are triangular structures that are used to span long distances, such as in bridges or large industrial buildings. They are made up of smaller members that are connected in a triangular pattern to provide support.
Plates are used to connect the different components of a steel structure together. They can be made up of base plates, which are used to connect columns to a concrete foundation, or end plates, which are used to connect beams to columns.
Bracing is used to provide additional support and stability to a steel structure. It can be made up of diagonal members, such as X-bracing or K-bracing, or horizontal members, such as cross-bracing.
Connections are used to connect the different components of a steel structure together. They can be made up of bolts, welds, or other types of fasteners.
Angles are used to provide additional support and stability to a steel structure. They can be used to connect beams to columns or to connect the different components of a bracing system.
Flat Bars are used to provide additional support and stability to a steel structure. They can be used as a tension member, a compression member or as a plate in a connection.
Tubes are used to provide additional support and stability to a steel structure. They can be used as a column, a beam or a truss member.
Fasteners such as bolts, nuts, and rivets are used to connect the different components of a steel structure together.
Accessories such as lintels, cleats, and brackets are used to connect the different components of a steel structure together.
