Universal Steel Beams FAQs
What Are Universal Steel Beams?
A Universal Steel Beam, commonly known as a UB, features an I- or H-shaped cross-section along its entire length. Its dimensions remain consistent throughout, with the height equal to or greater than the width at any point along the beam.
What Features Do Steel Beams Have?
Universal Beams are renowned for their robust strength and durability, making them exceptionally efficient at bearing heavy loads. They are frequently employed to form the structural framework of buildings, providing essential support and stability.
How Are Steel Beams Constructed?
Universal Beams, or I-beams, are typically crafted from structural steel. While steel is the most common material, alternatives such as aluminium can also be used in the manufacturing process.
Can Steel Beams Serve As Columns?
Universal steel beams and universal steel columns serve distinct purposes due to their unique properties. Universal Beams excel at carrying tension loads and are suitable for horizontal applications like roof rafters or floor joists.
Universal Columns are better suited for compression loads, making them ideal for vertical applications such as bridges or walls. Selecting the appropriate beam type is crucial for ensuring structural integrity and preventing potential failures.
