I-Beams vs. Wide-Flange Beams: Choosing the Right Beam for Your Project
Metal beams, sometimes called rolled steel joists (RSJ), provide structure, strength, and rigidity in buildings and structures, but different applications and static loads require different types of beams. Knowing which beam to choose is critical to the integrity and safety of the finished building. Two common beam types are I-beams and wide flange, or W-beams. […]
The Role of Steel in Bridge Construction
Steel is a high-strength material comprised of carbon and iron. This metal alloy has several key properties that differentiate it from other types of metal materials, such as: High melting point at or above 2500 degrees F. An average density of around 7.85kg/m-3, in which this value is a widely accepted standard for various types […]
The Advantages of Using Steel in Construction
