Aluminum beams are an extrusion product with uses ranging from automotive crossmember and other parts, aerospace equipment, general structural applications in the construction and architecture industries, and pipe fittings and containers. I-beams and wide flange beams are available in 6061 aluminum alloy in the T4 and T6 tempers.
ANSWER:
It is an aluminum extrusion product that can support pressure and strain. It is shaped like an uppercase I, where the web is narrow and the legs are tapered with equal lengths. It is typically lighter than wide flange beams. For wide flange beams, the web is longer than it is in the I-beam, but the legs are still tapered at equal lengths. This makes wide flange beams heavier, and capable of bearing higher loads. They are used across industries for both structural and decorative uses.
ANSWER:
The I-beam is considered the most popular beam. The I-beam can be used for structural uses, and structural support for buildings and in automotive, and is often used for framing for trucks, trailers, buses, and trains. Because all of these applications are widespread the I-beam is in high demand.
ANSWER:
When an aluminum beam will be exposed to harsh weather conditions where enduring a corrosive environment is required, anodizing is a surface finishing method that will boost the oxide layer on the aluminum product. This oxide layer protects it, making it more capable of withstanding extreme weather and corrosive environments, such as constant exposure to seawater.
