  • Overview 
    Hot rolled steel H-sections, also known as H-beams or wide flange beams, are structural steel profiles shaped like the letter "H." They are manufactured through a hot rolling process, where steel billets are heated above their recrystallization temperature (typically ~1,100°C) and passed through rollers to achieve the desired cross-section. 

     

    Key Features 
    Shape: Consists of two parallel flanges (horizontal elements) connected by a web (vertical element), forming an "H" geometry. 
    ● Uniform Thickness: Flanges and web typically have consistent thickness, though some variants (e.g., tapered flanges) exist. 
    ● Standardized Dimensions: Produced in compliance with international standards (e.g., ASTM A36, EN 10025, JIS G3101). 
    ● Material and Grades: 
    Made from carbon steel or low-alloy steel (common grades: S235, S275, S355 in Europe; A36, A572 in the US).

    Hot rolling enhances mechanical properties by refining the grain structure.

    Material Properties 
    Hot rolled steel H-sections are structural profiles characterized by their high strength, ductility, and weldability, achieved through controlled carbon-manganese steel compositions and the hot rolling process. Key properties include:

    ● Grades: Common grades include S235, S355 (EN), A36, A992 (ASTM). 
    ● Yield Strength: Typically 235–355 MPa (varies by grade). 
    ● Microstructure: Fine ferrite-pearlite grains from hot rolling, balancing strength and machinability. 
    ● Corrosion Resistance: Limited; requires protective coatings (e.g., galvanizing) for harsh environments. 
    ● Weldability & Fabrication: Excellent for most grades, though preheating may be needed for thicker/higher-carbon sections. 
    These properties make hot rolled H-sections ideal for construction, bridges, and industrial frameworks, combining cost-efficiency, durability, and ease of fabrication.

     
    Manufacturing Process 
    Heating: Steel slabs are reheated to ~1200°C for plasticity.

    Rolling: Passed through a series of rollers to form the H-shape.

    Cooling: Naturally air-cooled, retaining a mill scale (oxide layer) unless removed.

     

     

    Advantages  And Applications 
    Advantages Of Hot Rolled H-Sections 
    ● High strength-to-weight ratio for load-bearing applications. 
    Cost-effective compared to welded or cold-formed sections. 
    ● Excellent weldability and machinability due to uniform microstructure. 
    ● Wider flanges than I-beams, offering better resistance to bending and buckling. 
     

    Common Applications 
    ● Construction: Beams, columns, and frames in buildings/bridges. 
    ● Industrial: Support structures for machinery, platforms, and warehouses. 
     Infrastructure: Railway tracks, transmission towers, and shipbuilding. 
     

    Comparison With Other Sections 
    vs. I-beams: H-sections have wider, thicker flanges for better load distribution.

    vs. Cold-Formed Steel: Hot rolled offers higher strength and durability for heavy-duty use.

     

    Conclusion 
    Hot rolled H-sections are fundamental in modern steel construction due to their structural efficiency, ease of fabrication, and adaptability to diverse engineering requirements. Their standardized production ensures consistent quality for global applications.

Hot rolled steel H-sections

H Sections , known for its H-shaped cross-section, is a critical component in various construction and engineering applications, Here is a brief description: The web width (H) ranges from 100mm - 900mm. The flange width (B) from 100mm - 300mm. The web thickness (t1) from 5mm - 30mm. The flange thickness (t2) also from 5mm - 30mm. More to see EN 10365-2017. Common Grades: S235JR, S275JR, and S355JR according to EN10025. A36, A529, and A572 according to ASTM.
