Structural Steel Carbon Steel Profiles Wide Flange I Beam ASTM A572 Grade 55 5" X 16#
Structural Steel Wide Flange I Beam, ASTM A572 Grade 55 ,5" X 16#
Wide flange I beams are the most common of all beams and are an excellent candidate for most processing techniques. They are often characterized by a textured blue-grey finish, non-tapered flanges, and a thicker center web for increased strength. Commonly used in the construction industry, steel wide flange beams are a standard structural material, primarily used to carry loads transverse to its longitudinal axis (web). Steel wide flange beams are often heavier than standard I beams or junior beams.A572-55 is the standard specifications for structural steel.
