Specification of Iron H Beam Iron Profile WF INP
Each type of iron has certainly been designed in such a way as to be used according to its respective functions, meaning that each building will require different types of iron according to the needs of the field. This type of iron / steel profile (WF, INP, H-Beam) is often used in making frames in a building.
Some types of iron that we often know as profile iron include:
Wide Flange (WF) is usually used for piles, top and bottom chords, columns, cantilever canopy. This iron has a length of 12 meters with various weights and can be adjusted according to individual needs.
Iron Profile I or also called INP (I Beam) is shaped according to its name, which is similar to the letter 'I' but in structure and dimensions it is almost similar to WF profile iron. The difference is in the WF dimensions the ears are wider while INP / Balk Iron has a larger size small. INP iron is commonly used for construction materials such as applications on rails and others. In general, the specifications of INP (Balk Iron) iron are ss400 and ASTM A 36; BS 4360; DIN 17 100 JIS G 3101; JIS 3106; SNI 07 032
H-beam is used for columns, beams, piles, composite beam, cantilever canopy. There are also people who mention it as WF so you need to pay close attention to it
That's a little information about Iron / Steel Profiles (WF, INP, H-Beam).
