What is the function of angle steel

The main function of angle steel is to serve as a load-bearing member and connector, and it is widely used in various building structures and engineering structures.

Angle steel, commonly known as angle iron, is a long steel strip with two sides perpendicular to each other. It can be composed of various load-bearing components according to different structural needs, and can also be used as a connection between components. Angle steel has a wide range of uses, including but not limited to:

Construction field: Angle steel is used to construct floor structure brackets and supporting materials. It has strong load-bearing capacity and good durability, and can meet the requirements of building structure for strength and stability. In addition, it can also be used to fix doors and windows, strengthen the connection of the frame and the installation support of the plug.
Machinery manufacturing: In the manufacture of machinery and equipment, angle steel has excellent mechanical properties, especially bending resistance, tensile resistance and compressive resistance, so it is widely used in the manufacturing process of machinery and equipment. It is widely used in the production of transportation equipment, automobile assembly, transmission lines and frames.
Bridge construction: Angle steel plays an important role in bridge construction and is one of the key components that bear extremely heavy responsibilities. It carries an important guarantee for the quality of the bridge and is widely used in the structural frame, bridge guardrails, bridge piers and other components of the bridge.
Other fields: Angle steel is also used in shipbuilding and marine engineering as a reinforcement and support for the hull structure. In addition, it is also widely used in railway and bridge construction, furniture manufacturing and other fields.
The specifications of angle steel are usually expressed as "side length, side length, side thickness", for example, "50363" means unequal angle steel with side lengths of 50mm and 36mm and thickness of 3mm. It has high cost performance and can play the role of supporting or fixing the structure, so it is widely used in housing construction, bridges, tunnels, power towers, ships, brackets, steel structures and other fields.
