The composition of Universal Steel Beams or I-shaped beam consists of only three plates, including two plates of the same sizes are placed horizontally and called flanges and one vertical plate that plays the role of connector between flanges is known as the web. Therefore, there are lots of variations in the depth area and radius angle between flanges and web.
