Steel Profiles: Classification and Applications

Steel profiles are those that form the structures of different projects such as: bridges, towers, buildings, residences, houses, airports, industrial warehouses, industrial plants, among others.

Classification of Steel Profiles

Within the classification of steel profiles we can find structural profiles such as the IPR beam and the U channel, we will tell you more details about each of them:

IPR Beam

It is an I or H-shaped material, one of the most used in the construction and structural industry, thanks to its great load capacity and resistance. It can be found in a wide variety of sizes, lengths and weights that adapt to a good number of projects.

This material stands out because it can support horizontal and vertical loads, thanks to its design and shape it distributes the weight of the loads efficiently, they are ideal for different industries since they resist even earthquakes, its quality guarantees the stability of the structure that is made with this material.

Channel U

The U channel, as its name suggests, is a U-shaped profile. It is also one of the most commonly used profiles for supporting and reinforcing different structures. We can find a wide variety of measurements, lengths and weights.

This material, like the IPR beam, can be used to support both horizontal and vertical loads, and is used in a wide variety of industries such as construction, manufacturing, energy, agriculture and transportation.

Another of the classifications that we can find within the profiles are the commercial ones, within them we can find materials such as the angle and the sole, we will also tell you in detail about each one of them:

Angle

The angle is similar in shape to the letter L, there are two types of equal and unequal lakes, it can also be found in a wide variety of thicknesses and measurements, it is used as support and for reinforcement of different structures.

It is a very light material but stands out for its strength and durability. It is used for a wide variety of projects in industries such as structural engineering, construction, machinery, installations and architecture, to name just a few.

Solera

The hearth is a thin steel bar. There are two types: the mill hearth and the slitter hearth. This stands out because it has a smoother appearance. This material has multiple properties such as resistance, versatility, stability, lightness, low maintenance, ease of installation and handling, among others. It is also found in various thicknesses and lengths.

Hot rolled

Within this classification of steel profiles we find all the tubes that are manufactured from hot rolled steel sheet such as PTR, mechanical tube and montenes in their various forms, these materials are also widely used as they stand out for their great capacity, rigidity and resistance to support large weight loads.

Cold rolled

Within this classification we find all those that are manufactured from cold rolled steel sheet, such as tubular profiles and industrial tubes, they are equally used in projects where high resistance and durability are sought, their appearance and finishes are better than hot rolled ones.
