A steel angle is a type of structural steel beam, used for adding strength, support and stability to buildings. Structural angles commonly have an ‘L’ cross-section or shape, by joining together at a perpendicular, 90 degree angle. Similar to other structural steel products they are made through hot-rolling mild steel. 

Steel L angles are commonly used for bed frames, box trailers, structures and shelving. Its unique design gives it great bending resistance, in any direction. Similar to other structural steel beams and supports; the larger it is, the more weight it is able to take. 

What is an Equal Steel Angle?

Equal steel angles are steel angles with both ends equal in size and thickness.

What is an Unequal Steel Angle?

Unequal steel angles are the opposite. One end of the ‘L-shape’ is shorter, and one end is longer in this design.

Steel channels are a type of structure hot rolled from mild steel into a U, J, C or tube shape to provide strength and rigidity to the internal structure of buildings during construction. It is important to get the proportions of these steel products right to ensure that they are safely and securely able to withstand weight and impact from potential loads. 

What is a C-channel? 

The C-channel, or parallel flange channel, is a shape with a consistent width across the length and thick tapered flanges that give it a ‘c’ cross-section.

Structural C channels were once majorly used to support bridges, but have now become a cost-effective structural component for short and middle-spanning buildings. C-channel beams can be joined together to create a robust box-style foundation, or with a broad flat surface to create an i-beam. 

Universal columns are designed to hold heavy loads along their vertical line and resist twisting. 

In comparison, universal beams are designed and used to be spread out to hold loads across the length of the beam. At Cedar Steel, our most popular shapes for universal steel columns are ‘H’ and “L.’ 

What is a Universal H Column?

These universal columns are known as ‘H beams’ for their ‘H’ shape at the end of their length. This shape gives them strong similarities in width and depth, which makes them an ideal application for projects that require columns with the same strength in both directions to prevent twisting. 

The benefits of this shape are:

• Heavier load-bearing capabilities than universal beams
• Efficient at resisting twisting and shear loads
• Supporting floor joists
• Supporting rungs of ladders and stairs
• Supporting mezzanine floors in a warehouse

Please note that while universal columns have better capacity at carrying loads than universal beams, they are also heavier materials.

L shape columns are so named by their corner shape (90 degrees) that makes them look like an ‘L.’ They are mostly used for the corners of boundary walls. L columns provide minor support for structures where strength isn’t critical. 

• Resists shear, tension and compression loads in the corners of buildings
• Can be used to anchor flooring to a building’s foundation 

Applications for Universal Columns across industries:

For Residential Applications:

• Houses
• Multi-storey dwellings

For Commercial Applications:

• Shopping centres
• Offices
• Retail spaces

For Industrial Applications:

• Mezzanine warehouse floors
• Manufacturing
• Mining infrastructure

For Civil Applications:

• Transport infrastructure
• Bridges

A universal beam is a type of structural steel known for its shape: it has a taller height (the middle section between the side flanges) and shorter flanges (the supporting parts on the ends), with the same cross-section along its length.

When looking at a universal steel beam from either end it looks like a capital ‘I’ in a sans font, which is why it has its name.

The benefits of this shape and its robust composition are:

• High Tensile Strength
• Excellent at bearing load under direct pressure or tension in multiple directions
• More lightweight than Universal Columns (H-Beams)
• Even weight distribution
• Can prevent vibration in a building
