Roll Formed Steel Beams

Types of roll form.

Roll formed steel beams.

After the steel has been punched the steel is sent through rollers which shape the steel and give it the shape it requires for strength. Roll formed beams can be installed slightly faster than structural beams plus there is nothing to forget or misplace as no bolts or loose parts are required. While it is flat the steel is processed through a punch that punches the holes which will later be used to attach the beams. Boxspan is a roll formed beam manufactured from two c shaped sections of high tensile zinc coated steel mechanically locked together with a patented process.

The result a 40 60 lighter beam with the strength of steel and the versatility of timber. Boltless assembly auto engaging safety clips resist beam disengagement and provide an audible click when secured. Hence these sections are recently used as beams and joists in buildings. The popularity of roll formed aluminium lcb has increased due to the efficiency and design of these sections.

Roll form rack starts as a coil of steel. Roll formed beam pin connectors and safety locking mechanism provides an automatic engagement when the beam drops firmly into place on the roll formed upright column. Preferably the cold rolled steel beam is cold formed from a unitary piece of sheet steel. Steel king roll formed teardrop step beams.
