H-Beam

Also known as H-shaped steel or universal beam, is a long, rectangular piece of metal with a uniform cross-section along its length. It is called an “H-beam” because it is shaped like a capital letter H. The H-beam has wider flanges than an I-beam, which means it is stronger and more rigid. It is commonly used in construction, as it can support a lot of weight and span large distances. The H-beam’s design allows it to carry loads evenly, making it an efficient and cost-effective choice for many construction projects.
