Mild Steel (MS) I-Beams, also known as H-beams or W-beams depending on the flange width, are structural steel elements designed to carry heavy vertical loads and resist bending. The cross-section consists of a central vertical web that resists shear forces and two horizontal flanges that provide resistance against the bending moment. Manufactured through a hot-rolling process, these beams offer a high strength-to-weight ratio, making them the primary structural skeleton for multi-story buildings, industrial warehouses, and bridges. The current inventory includes a variety of standard Indian Standard Medium Beam (ISMB) sizes, ranging from 100mm to 600mm in depth. Their uniform structural logic ensures predictable performance under stress, while the carbon steel composition allows for robust welding and bolting in permanent steel assemblies.
