What Size Steel Beam do I Need?
Steel beam sizes will primarily depend on the length of the beam and the weight which the beam is required to support.
In building applications, steel beams, sections and channels may be needed to support various loads from numerous structural elements. These can include (but are not limited to):
- Floor joists
- Ceiling joists
- Flat or pitched roofs
- Masonry walls
- Stud walls
The process of identifying the correct steel beam weight, size and length can be difficult and time-consuming. But to make your life easier, Buy A Beam comes with a built-in steel beam calculator.
As you add steel products to your basket, you can customise their sizes, lengths, widths and any additional processes. The prices will automatically update once your values have been entered.
