GNEE ASTM H-beam W12x136 A36 material available from stock

 

W12x136 steel h beam is a type of American standard H-beam (Wide Flange H-Beam), belonging to the W12 series. The "W" in the naming rule stands for wide flange, "12" means the height is 12 inches, and "136" means the theoretical weight per unit length is 136 pounds per foot (about 202.8 kg per meter).

 

A36 material is a common material for W12x136 h beam, which belongs to the American standard carbon structural steel and is implemented in the ASTM A36/A36M standard. A36 has good weldability, toughness and cost-effectiveness, and is very suitable for use in construction and machinery manufacturing.

 

W12x136 h section steel Specific dimensions
Height (H): 12 inches (about 305 mm)
Flange width (Bf): usually 10 inches (about 254 mm)
Web thickness (Tw): about 0.5 inches (about 12.7 mm)
Flange thickness (Tf): about 0.5 inches (about 12.7 mm)
Theoretical weight: 136 pounds/foot (about 202.8 kg/meter)

 

W12x136 h section beam combines the characteristics of A36 material
High strength: It can withstand large loads and is suitable for high-load structures.
Good bending resistance: The geometric design of the flange and web gives it excellent bending resistance.
Good weldability: It is suitable for on-site welding construction to ensure the integrity of the structure.
Corrosion resistance: The corrosion resistance can be improved through coating treatment.
Economical: A36 material has a low cost and good cost performance.

 

W12x136 h shaped steel beam Applications
Building structures: such as beams and columns of high-rise buildings, industrial plants, and warehouses.
Bridge engineering: used for supporting beams and cross beams of bridges.
Machinery and equipment: used as brackets or structural parts of machinery and equipment.
Other structures: such as port facilities, towers, and other structures that require high-strength support.
