1.ASTM A36 Wide Flange Beams
Being the standard carbon steel, ASTM A36 has good weldability and is cost-effective. This type of steel is perfect for general usage in construction, and it doesn’t need to be particularly strong. A36 is a widely used material for H beams 150 x 150 and H beams 300 x 300 etc since it is easy to hot roll and very versatile.
2.ASTM A572-50 Wide Flange Beams
This high yield strength low alloy steel is the structural steel that is equivalent to the A36 carbon steel and has higher strength that makes it suitable for use in more applications, such as in construction of bridges or multi-story buildings. Astm A572-50 wide flange beams are best suited for bridge construction and in the framework of high rise buildings. Good strength combined with good toughness to give superior behavior under load.
3.ASTM A992 Wide Flange Beams
ASTM A992 wide flange beams are now the construction of building organic in North America, which was preeminently suitable for structural steel frames. Providing a higher strength-to-weight ratio, good weldability and higher resistance to bending, A992 beams have found their place in many modern structures. Whether you are buying hot rolled steel H beam or H Beam Sizes or need special H Beam dimensions, Quality of A992 is dependable.
