Universal beams, also known as universal I beams and H beams, are formed in the shape of a capital I (or a capital H). They are utilised in a variety of different fields in the construction industry. We supply both galvanised universal beams and mill finish universal beams.

Applications include:

• Engineering construction
• Residential construction
• Non-residential construction
• Mining infrastructure
• Transport and Storage
• Manufacturing

The horizontal sections of the I in the beam are known as the flanges and the vertical section is known as the web. Beam theory has been developed over time and it has been proven that the I shaped section is very effective for both bending and shear loads.

With I beams available in many different sizes, Statewide Building Products has all your universal beam needs covered. We stock a wide range of I beams and provide next day delivery service on all mill finished beams. They can be cut to the length you require, drilled in places for hold downs and mitered to suit your roof pitch. Occasionally, 2 universal beams require bolting together or other forms of metal fabrication. We are also able to cater for your needs. Contact us today!
