What is H-beam?
Structural steel has been widely used in the construction of commercial buildings since the first steel structure, the Rand McNally Building, was built in 1890.
Since that time, structural steel has been used in large construction projects. The availability of steel makes it more convenient to use.
First, H-beam steel bonds well with concrete and has many properties that make it better than concrete in construction projects.
Steel remains one of the preferred materials in construction because it takes less time to build and has a perfect combination of lightness, high strength, and ease of fabrication.

Difference between H-beam and I-beam
Basics of H-beam and I-beam
As the name suggests, H-beam is an H-shaped structural member made of rolled steel, also known as a wide-flange beam.
It is one of the most commonly used structural members in the United States. Its cross-section looks like an "H", it is very strong, and the cross-sectional surface area of the beam is large.
On the other hand, I-beam is also called H-beam, but its cross-section looks like an "I". It is basically a rolled steel beam or a beam with a capital I in the cross-section.
