H-shaped steel is a high-efficiency profile with a more optimized cross-sectional area distribution and a more reasonable strength-to-weight ratio. Since all parts of the H-shaped steel are arranged at right angles, the H-shaped steel has the advantages of strong bending resistance in all directions, simple construction, cost saving and light structural weight, and has been widely used.

A572/A992 Steel H Beam is a dual certified beam used where corrosion resistance is important. It contains small additions of vanadium or columbium, chrome, copper, nickel and molybdenum, that give A992 better weldability and material definition. The shape of the H beam makes it incredibly strong for columns. A572/A992 is often used in bridge construction and frame building.

Both the I-beam and H-beam are very versatile and can be used for various applications.

They are both structural steel beams that have been developed to provide support for buildings and other structures.

The main difference between these two types of beams is their shape. An “I” beam has a triangular cross-section, 

while an “H” beam has a rectangular one (hence the name).

Another difference between them is that an “H” beam is usually longer than an “I” beam of similar size and weight capacity. 

This means that an H-beam will take up more space when installed,

but it also offers greater strength when carrying heavy loads over long spans or lengths; 

whereas an I-beam may be better suited to handling smaller loads over short span lengths due to its increased stiffness (less flexibility).
