Dimensional features of W36x441 W36x487 W36x529
The three have similar cross-sectional heights (about 38.9–39.8 inches). As the weight increases, the web and flange thicknesses increase significantly, and the cross-sectional area and moment of inertia also increase.
W36×529 has the highest cross-sectional stiffness (Ix and Iy), suitable for withstanding greater bending moments and shear forces.
Common lengths are 6 meters, 9 meters, 12 meters or customized.
W36x441 W36x487 W36x529 H section steel performance
Ultra-high load-bearing capacity: large cross-section and high moment of inertia enable it to withstand extremely high bending moments and shear forces, suitable for ultra-large span structures.
Strong torsional rigidity: wide flange and thick web design improve torsion resistance and local stability.
Multi-directional stability: H-section is symmetrical and has high rigidity in both horizontal and vertical directions.
Durability: The corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of A572GR50 and A992 materials are more suitable for harsh environments.
Wide Flange H Beam Comparison
| Model/Material | advantage | shortcoming |
|---|---|---|
| W36×441 | Relatively light, suitable for medium and high loads, low cost | The carrying capacity is lower than 487 and 529, and the extreme scenarios are limited. |
| W36×487 | Higher stiffness, suitable for higher loads, balanced performance and weight | Increased cost and weight, higher requirements for transportation and installation |
| W36×529 | Strongest bearing capacity, suitable for extreme scenarios, excellent earthquake resistance | High cost, heavy weight, and requires heavy equipment support |
| A36 | Low cost, simple processing and welding | Low strength, not suitable for high load or earthquake-resistant scenarios |
| A572GR50 | High strength, fatigue resistance, good overall performance | The cost is slightly higher, and welding requires preheating control |
| A992 | Optimal strength and toughness, excellent earthquake resistance, and strict control of yield strength ratio | Highest cost and high processing requirements |
