Today’s steel knowledge - C-shaped steel

C-shaped steel is a common steel material, so named because of its C-shaped cross-section. This kind of steel has high strength and rigidity and can withstand large loads and forces, so it is widely used in construction, machinery, transportation and other fields.

Specifications of C-shaped steel

C-shaped steel purlins are divided into five specifications according to different heights: 80, 100, 120, 140, and 160. The length can be determined according to the engineering design, but considering transportation and installation conditions, the total length generally does not exceed 12 meters.

Applicable scope

C-shaped steel is widely used in beams, columns, purlins and other structural parts of steel structure buildings; in the mechanical field, it is used to manufacture various mechanical equipment; in the transportation field, it is used to manufacture various transportation facilities such as highway guardrails.

Product advantages

1. High efficiency and energy saving: The open cross-section design of C-shaped steel makes it have stronger load-bearing capacity, and can effectively reduce its own weight and facilitate transportation and installation. In addition, it can greatly reduce energy consumption during the production process and is an environmentally friendly construction steel.

2. High strength: It has high strength and can withstand larger loads and forces.

3. Easy installation: The size and shape of C-shaped steel are designed and produced according to standards, which makes them easier to install.
