Main Support "H" Metal Beam

The web resists shear forces, while the flanges resist most of the bending moment experienced by the beam.

H-beams are widely used in the construction industry and are available in a variety of standard sizes. Tables are available to allow easy selection of a suitable steel H-beam size for a given applied load.

Due to their slightly different cross-section shape, thicker central web and wider flanges, H-beams can bear larger loads than I-beams. While both are advantageous load-bearing structures, due to how long H-beams can span for, they are more reliable for larger-scale projects.

On this occasion we carried out a job of placing an H-beam in the basement of an old house under renovation, to reinforce the structure and support the new weight to which the bases will be subjected for work to be carried out on the upper floors of this house.
