The solar industry has grown at a rapid pace over the last decade, and one of the main sectors of this industry is solar farms. A solar farm is a collection of solar panels that are installed across acres of land. Solar farms have been popping up all across the globe, and SINO GREEN can assist with the creation of the solar panel mounts for this sector.

H Section Steel

The section shape of H section steel is similar to English letter H. It is also called universal steel beam, wide edge steel or parallel flange steel. A cross section of H steel usually consists of two parts: web and flange plate, also known as waist and edge.

H section steel is a kind of economical and high-efficiency steel with a more optimized cross-sectional area distribution and more reasonable strength-to-weight ratio. H-shaped steel has the advantages of strong bending resistance, simple construction, cost saving and light structure. H-shaped steel is widely used in various civil and industrial structures, various large-span industrial buildings and modern high-rise buildings, especially in areas with frequent seismic activities.

H section steel is divided into:

The flange wide type (HW)

The flange middle type (HM)

The narrow flange type (HN)

Thin-wall h-beam type (HT)

H section steel pile type (HU)

characteristics

H-type steel, optimized from I-shaped steel, is economic cross section steel with better cross-section mechanical performance. Especially, it is named because of its letter "H" shape section.

Its characteristics are as follows:

1. Wide flange, large lateral stiffness and strong anti-bending ability.

2. Two parallel flange surfaces enable easy and simple connection, processing and installation.

3. Compared with welding joist steel, H-type has lower cost, high precision, small residual stress. There is no need for expensive welding material and welding seam detection, so the steel structure production is cost saving.

4. Under the same cross section load, reduction weight of hot rolled H-type steel structure can be % more than the traditional steel structure.

5. Compared with concrete structure, hot rolled H steel structure can increase 6% using area. Meanwhile, its self-reduce weight also reduces the internal structure design force.

6. H section steel can be processed into T steel. Honeycomb beam can be formed into various sorts of cross section by combination, which greatly meets the demand of engineering design and production.

PROCESSING FLOW OF H-SECTION STEEL

H-section steel can be produced by welding or rolling. Welding H-section steel is to cut strip with suitable thickness into suitable width and weld flange and web together in continuous welding unit.

The processing of welded H-section steel:

Testing of Raw Materials①——Computer Typesetting, Blanking②——Assembly③——Welding④——Weld Seam Inspection and Root Cleaning⑤——Denaturation Control⑥——Test Assembling⑦——Dimensional Inspection Verification⑧——Sand Blasting and Rust Removal⑨——Painting and Numbering Packaging⑩

Universal rolling mill is often used to roll H-beam in modern rolling production. The web of H-beam is rolled between the upper and lower horizontal rolls, while the flange is rolled between the side of the horizontal roll and the vertical roll at the same time.

The processing of hot rolled H-beam:

Special-shaped Continuous Casting Embryo①——Walking Beam Heating Furnace②——High Pressure Water Descaling③——Two-roll Reversible Roughing Mill④——Cantilever Straightener⑤——Walking Beam Cold Bed⑥——Hot Saw⑦——Universal Mill Set⑧——Marshalling Stand⑨——Cold Saw⑩——Stacking and Packing⑪

channel section STEEL

The channel section or C- section consists two equal flanges connected to web at both ends. Channel sections are extensively used in steel framed structures.

Characteristics and Application

Steel channel are one of the most popular parts in construction and manufacturing. Apart from this, C channel & u channel are also used in our everyday life if you have so much attention to them like stair stringer. However, owing to its bending axis is not centered on the width of flanges, structural channel steel is not so strong as I beam or wide flange beam.

Tracks & sliders for machines, doorways, etc..

Posts and supports for building corners, walls & railings.

Protective edges for walls.

Decorative elements for constructions like ceiling channel system.

Frames or framing material for construction, machines.

Solar photovoltaic C steel stents, including vertical stent and inclined support, described on the inclined support fixed link with four pieces and two of them mentioned connection piece described in stent, and described the four connecting block have connecting pin, two of the described connecting pin end described through connection piece made stents and stated, described at the bottom of the inclined support both sides has a base, two mentioned at the top of the base plate Are provided with a rotating plate; In the utility model by setting the state of stents and are together without C payments, the cross section C payments itself excellent performance, high strength, compared with the traditional channel, the same strength can save material, and C payments itself has empty slots, by connecting piece is located in the empty slot, and plug in connecting pin can make vertical stents and oblique connection for an organic whole, in order to facilitate the bracket to connect Installation, and relatively easy to make.

COMMON APPLICATIONS FOR STRUCTURAL STEEL USED IN SOLAR INDUSTRY

SINO GREEN has experience providing structural steel products to the solar industry, and our team is here to help companies with their solar farm installation projects. The solar panel mounts are comprised of a steel tube and steel beams. The round or square steel tube can be used for the based of the solar panel mount, and the steel wide flange beams or I beams are used to secure the solar panel to the mount. If your solar application requires galvanized structural steel products, we are also able to supply galvanized steel tubes and beams.
