What are the similarities and differences between square steel and flat steel

1. What are square steel and flat steel?

Square steel and flat steel are one of the common steel building materials. Square steel refers to the steel with a square cross-section, also known as square steel; Flat steel refers to steel with a rectangular cross-section, also known as flat steel. They are widely used in construction, Bridges, machinery manufacturing, transportation and other fields.

2. The difference between square steel and flat steel

(1) Different cross-section shapes
Square steel is a square cross-section, flat steel is a rectangular cross-section.
(2) Different strength and load-bearing capacity
Generally speaking, the strength of square steel is greater than that of flat steel, and the carrying capacity is stronger.
(3) Different uses
Square steel is mainly used for supporting structures, such as columns, beams, etc. Flat steel is mainly used to strengthen, support and fix structures, such as wall panels, beams, beams and so on.

3. The similarities between square steel and flat steel

(1) Same material
Square steel and flat steel are made of low carbon steel or alloy steel, which has good toughness and plasticity.
(2) Same manufacturing process
Square steel and flat steel are made of rolling process, the production cost is low, easy to use.
(3) Machinability is the same
Square steel and flat steel have good machinability, can be welding, cutting, stamping and other processing.
In short, despite the differences between square steel and flat steel in terms of cross-section shape, strength and use, they are both very important building materials. This has a wide range of applications in construction, bridge construction and other fields.
