2. • Welcome to the presentation on "Steel Beams"
by Grone Solutions Wholesale LLC.
• Steel beams are fundamental components in
modern construction, providing strength,
stability, and versatility to various structures.
• This presentation will delve into the benefits,
types, applications, and considerations of steel
beams in construction.
INTRODUCTION
3. • High Strength: Steel beams offer superior
load-bearing capacity, making them ideal for
supporting heavy loads and spanning long
distances.
• Durability: Steel's resistance to corrosion and
weathering ensures the longevity of
structures.
• Design Flexibility: Steel beams come in a
variety of shapes and sizes, allowing for
creative and efficient architectural designs.
• Sustainable Choice: Steel is highly recyclable,
reducing environmental impact and
promoting sustainability.
BENEFITS OF STEEL BEAMS
4. • I-Beams: Also known as W-beams, they are
commonly used for horizontal support in
various applications.
• HSS (Hollow Structural Sections): Square,
rectangular, and circular hollow sections offer
design versatility and are used in aesthetic
and structural applications.
• Channel Beams: Used for applications
requiring exceptional torsional stability.
• T-Beams: Suitable for floor and roof systems
due to their horizontal flange.
TYPES OF STEEL BEAMS
5. • Skyscrapers: Steel beams form the backbone of
tall buildings, providing structural support and
stability.
• Bridges: Steel beams are essential components in
bridge construction, supporting roadway decks
and enabling safe passage.
• Industrial Facilities: Steel beams are used for
framing, roofing, and support structures in
factories and warehouses.
• Residential Construction: In homes, steel beams
can create open-concept spaces and support
load-bearing walls.
APPLICATIONS OF STEEL
BEAMS
6. • Load-Bearing Requirements: Choose the
appropriate beam size and shape based on the
expected loads and spans.
• Structural Design: Collaborate with engineers to
ensure proper integration of steel beams within the
overall structural design.
• Environmental Factors: Consider the environment
and potential exposure to corrosion or extreme
conditions when selecting coatings or treatments.
• Budget and Timeline: Evaluate cost-effectiveness
and availability of materials to meet project
deadlines.
CONSIDERATIONS FOR
STEEL BEAM SELECTION
7. • Fabrication: Steel beams are
manufactured through various
processes, including hot-rolling
and welding.
• Installation: Proper installation
techniques and equipment are
crucial to ensure safety and
structural integrity.
FABRICATION AND
INSTALLATION
8. • Proper Handling: Follow guidelines for
lifting, transporting, and storing steel
beams to prevent accidents.
• Welding and Connection: Ensure accurate
welding and proper connection methods
to maintain structural stability.
• Inspection and Maintenance: Regular
inspections and maintenance are
essential to identify and address any
potential issues.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
9. • Steel beams are indispensable
components in modern construction,
offering strength, durability, and design
flexibility.
