About Carbon Steel. H Beam is a versatile structural carbon steel product and one of the most popular cross-section steel bars. It is usually manufactured by hot-rolling steel bars in an H-shaped section. H-beams have inner and outer flange surfaces that run parallel, the width of the flanges is approximately equal to the depth of the beam, and the thickness is uniforme. And is mainly employed where strength needs are not overwhelming and used to support heavy loads.
It is transported in specialized heavy cargo trucks, and on ships.
The uses and applications of H Beam may vary according to its specification. The main forms of H Beam are ASTM A36 grade; and ASTM A992 grade.
