What Is Structural Steel?
Structural steel is a category of steel products specifically designed for use in load-bearing and construction applications. It is manufactured to precise standards to ensure consistent strength, durability, and structural performance in buildings and infrastructure.
Structural steel sections are commonly used to form the framework of buildings, bridges, platforms, and industrial structures where high strength-to-weight ratio and reliability are essential.

Structural Steel FAQ
Structural steel is typically supplied in 6 metre or 12 metre stock lengths, with custom cutting available for project requirements.
Steel beams (UB) are used horizontally to support loads, while columns (UC) are vertical structural members designed to carry compressive loads.
Common grades include S235JR, S275JR, and S355JR, manufactured according to EN 10025 standards.
Structural steel is used in buildings, bridges, industrial structures, and infrastructure projects due to its high strength and durability.
