Steel Support

Steel Support,a versatile load-bearing component in construction,safeguards structural stability by bearing vertical,horizontal,or inclined loads.It transfers forces(concrete weight,wind,seismic activity,construction loads)to stable substrates,widely used in buildings,bridges,tunnels,and industrial projects.Unlike wooden supports,it offers high strength(yield strength≥235MPa),corrosion resistance(with galvanization/powder coating),and reusability,making it a staple in modern construction.

Structurally,it varies by load direction:Vertical supports(e.g.,steel props)use seamless steel tubes(Φ48-Φ89mm,3-5mm wall thickness)with top/bottom bearing plates(100×100-200×200mm)for load distribution;horizontal/inclined supports(e.g.,braces)adopt angle steels(L50×5-L100×10)or channel steels(C10-C20)with swivel joints for angle adjustment(30°-60°optimal).Adjustable models have telescopic tubes or threaded ends(adjustment range 50-300mm)to fit variable heights/spaces.

Classified by function:Vertical steel support(for formwork,scaffold立杆);lateral steel support(for wind/seismic resistance);inclined steel support(for bracing prefabricated components).By durability:Temporary(for construction phases)and permanent(for long-term structural reinforcement).

Key applications:Supporting concrete formwork(floors,beams);bracing tunnel linings/bridge decks;reinforcing steel structures(factory trusses);stabilizing prefabricated walls during installation.

Safety rules:Match to calculated loads(avoid overloading);install vertically(deviation≤1°)or at designed angles;secure joints(torque 35-50N·m);inspect for cracks,rust,or bent parts—discard damaged units.Its adaptability ensures safe,efficient construction across scenarios.
