A column is a vertical component that bears the load from above. The H-shaped steel column is a commonly used form of column, and its cross-section is in the shape of an "H".
The advantages of H-shaped steel columns include:
1.High bearing capacity
Compared with I-beams, H-shaped steel structures have higher strength. Less material is needed to achieve the same strength requirements than I-beams, which can save costs. For example, the flange of H-shaped steel is wide, the lateral stiffness is large, and the bending resistance ability is strong, which is approximately 5%-10% higher than that of I-beams.
2.Regular structure and easy splicing
The two surfaces of its flange are parallel to each other, which makes connection, processing, and installation relatively simple. At the same time, it is more flexible in structural construction and can improve space utilization.
3.Good structural stability
The connection is smooth and tight, with high toughness and stability. It is suitable for building structures that bear large vibration and impact loads, and has strong resistance to natural disasters. It is
particularly suitable for some building structures in earthquake-prone areas. According to statistics, in the devastating major earthquakes above magnitude 7 in the world, steel structure buildings mainly based on H-shaped steel suffered relatively less damage.
4.Economical and efficient
Compared with welded I-beams, it has lower cost, higher precision, and smaller residual stress. There is no need for expensive welding materials and weld inspection, saving about 30% of the production cost of steel structures; Under the same cross-sectional load, the weight of hot-rolled H-shaped steel structures is reduced by 15%-20% compared to traditional steel structures. Compared with concrete structures, hot-rolled H-shaped steel structures can increase the usable area by 6%, while the self-weight of the structure is reduced by 20%-30%, reducing the internal force of the structure design.
5.Labor and material saving
It is easy for structural connection and installation, and also easy to dismantle and reuse. It can significantly reduce the consumption of raw materials, energy, and labor. It has low residual stress and good appearance and surface quality.
6.Various specifications
The product specifications are rich. In the same size series, only the thickness dimensions of the web and flange are variable, and the dimensions of the other parts are fixed and unchanged. It is convenient to select and can better meet different usage requirements.
The H-shaped steel columns are mainly applied in the following scenarios:
1.Industrial and civil building structures, such as factories, high-rise buildings, etc.
2.Steel structure bearing brackets of industrial structures.
3.Steel piles and supporting structures of underground projects.
4.Industrial equipment structures such as petrochemical and power industries.
5.Components of large-span steel bridges.
6.Frame structures for ships and machinery manufacturing.
7.Beam brackets of trains, automobiles and tractors.
8.Conveyor belts in ports, high-speed baffle brackets, etc.
