H-beam, do you always think that it becomes an I-beam when it is turned horizontally? In fact, these are two different steel components. The most intuitive difference between the two is that the inner side of one plate of the I-beam is inclined, while the H-beam is horizontal and vertical. The plate of the I-beam is shorter and can only withstand forces perpendicular to the plate, so it is often used to make beams. The plate of the H-beam is longer and can withstand forces in two directions, so it can be used to make columns. In addition, it is worth mentioning that the international name for I-beams is I-beams, because its cross-section looks like the capital letter I. Don't make the mistake next time you see it. I-beams and H-beams are two commonly used steels in construction projects. They have some differences in shape and use. This article will introduce the characteristics and application range of these two steels in detail so that readers can better understand their differences.

First of all, I-beams are a type of steel with an I-shaped cross-section. Its cross-sectional shape is similar to the "I" character, hence the name. The advantages of I-beams are that they have a small cross-sectional size, light weight, strong bearing capacity, and certain seismic resistance. Therefore, in construction projects, I-beams are often used to make light steel structures, such as light factories, warehouses, garages, etc.
