Structural Steel I Beams and Columns
Features & Benefits
- Durability and Longevity:
- Steel beams are naturally resistant to rot, pests, and environmental wear, ensuring a long lifespan for structures.
- Recyclability:
- Steel is an endlessly recyclable material, making it a highly sustainable choice that reduces waste in landfills.
-
Structural Performance:
- Their high strength and durability ensure a structure’s stability and ability to withstand heavy loads, environmental stress, and natural disasters like earthquakes.
- Faster Construction:
- Because beams are prefabricated in controlled environments, installation is faster, reducing on-site labor, minimizing adjustments, and accelerating construction timelines.
- Cost-Effectiveness:
- The combination of a long lifespan, low maintenance requirements, and the efficiency of fabrication and erection makes steel a cost-effective choice over time.

Applications
- Roofing and Flooring:
- They are used in roof trusses, rafters, and floor joists to provide stability and strength, especially in areas that must support heavier loads.
- Bridges and Crossings:
- Steel’s durability makes it a primary material for constructing large and small bridges and other types of crossings.
- Marine and Offshore Structures:
- Steel beams are used in the construction of docks, ships, and marine infrastructure, including the supporting structures for offshore wind turbines.
- Foundations and Support Systems:
- In some cases, steel beams are used in foundation applications, such as building deep foundations or as part of waler and bracing systems in construction.
