ST37 Steel H Beam

Product Description

ST37-2 is a general term for German carbon structural steel, belonging to the category of low-carbon steel. A common specific grade is ST37-2, where "37" indicates a minimum tensile strength of approximately 370 MPa. It is widely used in construction, underground engineering, bridges, and machinery manufacturing. Its excellent weldability and machinability make it ideal for fabricating various types of steel structures.

Internationally accepted materials and applications

Component TypePreferred SectionApplication Logic
Building Frame Main/Secondary BeamsAmerican Standard: W-beams (e.g., W12x26)
European Standard: IPE beams (e.g., IPE 300)
A high section depth is sought to achieve a large moment of inertia, which provides excellent bending resistance. This leads to optimal material efficiency and cost-effectiveness for spanning horizontal members.
Structural Columns or Heavy-Duty BeamsAmerican Standard: W-beams (deeper, heavier models)
European Standard: HEA/HEB series
These members require substantial load-bearing capacity. The sections must have good moments of inertia and compressive strength about both principal axes to resist combined loads and prevent buckling.
Purlins, Wall Girts, & BracingAmerican Standard: C-beams (Channel sections)
European Standard: UPE/UPN channels
These components handle relatively light bending loads from cladding. Their shape makes them easy and fast to connect to wall and roof panels, facilitating quick enclosure of the structure.
Material SelectionPrimary Steel: A992 (US) / S355 (EU)
Secondary Steel: A36 (US) / S235 (EU)
A992/S355 is the modern default for main structural members due to its high strength, good toughness, and excellent weldability.
A36/S235 is specified for non-critical, secondary elements like stairs, platforms, and railings, where high strength is not required.
