W21x201 A992 w shape structural steel
h beam steel structure Material properties
ASTM A992 h shaped steel material: This is a high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) structural steel, mainly used for beams and columns in building structures.
The minimum yield strength of A992 structural h beam is 50,000 psi (about 345 MPa), and the tensile strength ranges from 65,000 to 85,000 psi (about 450 to 585 MPa).
In addition, it also has good weldability and formability, making it one of the preferred materials in modern steel structure design.
Parameters of W21x201 wide flange beam
Section height: approximately 21 inches (533 mm)
Web thickness: determines the load-bearing capacity of the steel
Flange thickness: affects the overall stability and connection method of the steel
Unit weight: approximately 201 pounds per foot (approximately 99.8 kg/m)
Application areas of W21x201h beam wide flange
Due to its larger size and higher load-bearing capacity, W21x201 steel is particularly suitable for the following occasions:
Heavy building structures: such as high-rise buildings, industrial plants, etc., which can withstand large loads.
Bridge construction: as main beams or other key load-bearing components.
Infrastructure projects: including but not limited to large public facilities such as airports and stadiums.
Advantages of A992 W21x201 h shaped beam
High strength: Compared with the traditional A36 steel beam h, A992 material h beam provides higher strength, which helps to reduce the amount of steel required, thereby reducing the overall structural weight and cost.
Good weldability: Suitable for the needs of modern steel structure buildings, easy for on-site installation and construction.
Economical and efficient: Through optimized design, effective control of material costs can be achieved while meeting structural requirements.
