American Wide Flange Beam W30x108 W30x116

 

W30x108 steel and W30x116 h section steel are wide-flange H-section steels in the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) standard: W stands for "Wide Flange"; 30 stands for the nominal depth of the steel in inches, which is approximately 30 inches (762 mm); 108 and 116 stand for the weight of the steel in pounds per foot (lb/ft), i.e. W30x108 is 108 lb/ft and W30x116 is 116 lb/ft.

W30x108 h shaped steel
Depth: 30.0 inches (762 mm)
Flange width: 10.475 inches (266.1 mm)
Flange thickness: 0.760 inches (19.3 mm)
Web thickness: 0.545 inches (13.8 mm)
Cross-sectional area: 31.7 square inches (204.5 cm²)
Weight per meter: Approximately 160.7 kg/m (converted from 108 lb/ft)

 

W30x116 h beam structure
Depth: 30.01 inches (762.3 mm)
Flange width: 10.495 inches (266.6 mm)
Flange thickness: 0.850 inches (21.6 mm)
Web thickness: 0.565 inches (14.4 mm)
Cross-sectional area: 34.2 square inches (220.6 cm²)
Weight per meter: Approximately 172.6 kg/m (converted from 116 lb/ft)


W30x116 is heavier than W30x108, mainly because the thickness of the flange and web is increased, resulting in a larger cross-sectional area and stronger load-bearing capacity; the moment of inertia and section modulus of W30x116 h section beam are larger, and the bending resistance and stiffness are better than W30x108 steel h column, which is suitable for higher load scenarios.

 

 

Production process of W30x108 W30x116 structural h beam


Hot rolling process: Usually through hot rolling forming, the steel billet is rolled into a specific cross-sectional shape at high temperature.
Surface quality: The surface flatness of hot-rolled steel is high and the residual stress is low, which is suitable for direct use in structural connections.
Material selection: Commonly used carbon steel (such as A36, A992), low-alloy high-strength steel can also be selected according to needs.

 

 

W30x108 W30x116 Structural steel h beam Application areas


Building structure: used as beams, columns or supporting members, commonly found in high-rise buildings, factories, stadiums, etc.
Bridge engineering: provides high load-bearing capacity and seismic resistance, suitable for bridge main beams or cross beams.
Machinery manufacturing: used for heavy equipment frames, crane rails, etc.
Energy industry: such as foundation structure support for wind power equipment.
