W10x33 h beam structure Performance characteristics
Flexural bearing capacity: Wide flange design (247mm) optimizes stress distribution, large moment of inertia, suitable for large-span beam structures.
Compressive stability: Thick web (11mm) enhances shear resistance, suitable for high-stress support scenarios.
Weldability: Compatible with arc welding and gas shielded welding to meet the needs of complex node connections.
Anti-corrosion treatment: Hot rolling process combined with galvanizing or spraying process to improve weather resistance and corrosion resistance.
W10x33 h section beam Application areas
Building structure: Industrial plant main beam, high-rise building frame and heavy support column.
Bridge engineering: Small and medium span bridge main beam or cross beam, with a bearing capacity of 30-50 tons.
Machinery Manufacturing: heavy-load scenarios such as mining machinery bases and port crane rail beams.
