American W Shapes | Section Sizes w14x311

 

W14x311 structural steel h beam is a wide flange H-beam in the American Standard (ASTM), mainly used in building structures, bridge construction and other engineering fields that require high strength and large load-bearing capacity.

 

A36H steel is a general-purpose carbon structural steel with good mechanical properties and weldability; while A992 steel is more commonly used in wide flange H-beams in modern buildings, with higher yield strength and better toughness.

 

The "W" in W14x311 h type steel beam stands for wide flange H-beam, "14" refers to its nominal depth of 14 inches (about 355.6 mm), and "311" means that the weight per foot of length is about 311 pounds (about 155.5 kg/m). It is a very large and heavy H-beam suitable for extremely high load-bearing requirements.

 

W14x311 steel h beam performance characteristics
High strength and high stiffness: Due to the large cross-sectional size and heavy unit weight, W14x311 has excellent load-bearing capacity and rigidity.
Widely used: Suitable for heavy construction projects such as the core tube of high-rise buildings, the main supporting structure of large industrial plants, and bridge construction.
Good processing performance: easy to cut, drill and weld, convenient for installation and adjustment during construction.
