Is H-beam suitable for application in buildings?

　　H-beam is a new type of economic building steel. H-shaped steel has an economical and reasonable cross-sectional shape, good mechanical properties, and uniform extension at various points on the section during rolling with low internal stress. Compared with ordinary I-shaped steel, it has the advantages of large cross-sectional modulus, light weight, and metal saving, which can reduce the weight of building structures by 30-40%; Due to the parallel inner and outer sides of its legs and the right angle of its legs, it can be assembled into components, saving up to 25% of the welding and riveting workload. Commonly used in large buildings that require high load-bearing capacity and good cross-sectional stability (such as factories, high-rise buildings, etc.), as well as bridges, ships, lifting and transportation machinery, equipment foundations, brackets, foundation piles, etc.

　　H-shaped steel is a kind of economical section steel with better mechanical properties of section, which is developed from the optimization of I-shaped steel. Especially, the section is named after the same English alphabet "H". Its characteristics are as follows:

　　Wide flange and high lateral stiffness. Strong bending resistance, approximately 5% -10% higher than I-beam.

　　The two surfaces of the flange are parallel to each other, making it easy to connect, process, and install.

　　Compared with welded I-beams, it has low cost, high accuracy, low residual stress, no need for expensive welding materials and weld seam testing, and saves about 30% of steel structure production costs.

　　Under the same cross-sectional load, the weight of hot-rolled H-steel structures is reduced by 15% -20% compared to traditional steel structures.

　　Compared with concrete structures, hot-rolled H-steel structures can increase their usage area by 6%, while reducing their self weight by 20-30%, reducing the internal force of structural design.

　　H-shaped steel can be processed into T-shaped steel, and honeycomb beams can be combined to form various cross-sectional forms, greatly meeting the needs of engineering design and production.
