Universal Column

Product Details:

A Universal Column (UC), also known as an H-section, is a structural steel beam with a symmetrical "H" or "I" shape, characterized by its wide flanges and shallow depth compared to a Universal Beam. UCs are designed to bear heavy vertical loads and are primarily used as load-bearing columns in construction, offering high strength, stability, and resistance to buckling.  Key Characteristics

• Shape: An H-shaped cross-section with wide, parallel flanges and a web. 
• Purpose: Used as structural columns to support axial (vertical) loads. 
• Dimensions: Its depth is roughly equal to its width, though the exact size varies based on the required load capacity. 
• Materials: Made from high-strength steel, providing excellent compressive strength and durability. 

Advantages

• High Strength: Capable of supporting significant vertical loads due to its robust design. 
• Stability: Offers stability against buckling under axial loads. 
• Versatility: Can be used in various construction projects, from residential buildings to larger structures, especially where height is a limiting factor. 
• Durability: Steel construction ensures long-term strength and resistance to forces. 

Applications

• Structural Support: Provides the main vertical support in buildings. 
• Residential Projects: Ideal for load-bearing in projects with limited height, such as basements and lofts. 
• Confined Spaces: Its smaller depth compared to a universal beam makes it suitable for applications in confined areas. 

How They Are Used 

• Connection: A cap plate might be welded to the top for other beams to bolt to, or other beams may be bolted directly to the flanges.
• Foundation: Often have a base plate welded to the bottom for connection to the foundation.
