As one of the most commonly used materials in the construction industry, profile steel has been widely used in various scenarios. But have you ever learned that there is another kind of steel profile called bulb flat steel?

In this article, let Baowu show you the relevant content of flat bulb steel.

 

Bulb flat steel is a kind of special section steel, which is composed of flat web and spherical ball head, and is asymmetric section steel.

Flat bulb steel is a medium profile mainly used in shipbuilding and bridge building, among which the flat bulb for ship is an auxiliary medium profile for shipbuilding. In recent years, with the rapid development of the shipbuilding industry, the demand for marine bulb flat steel is strong. Generally, larger ships and regular ships are mostly designed with marine flat bulb steel for the main hull, and the flat bulb steel with the same thickness and material as the connecting plate is used as the frame.

 

Bulb flat steel is a kind of special section steel, which is composed of flat web and spherical ball head, and is asymmetric section steel. Flat bulb steel is mainly used in shipbuilding and bridge building, but with the rapid development of the shipbuilding industry in recent years, flat bulb steel has gradually become a special name for marine flat bulb steel.

The specifications of flat bulb steel are generally divided according to the nominal width, the minimum size is 8# (that is, the nominal width is 80mm), and the maximum size is 43# (the maximum nominal width is 430mm). Each specification has 2 to 5 different thicknesses.

The material of bulb flat steel corresponds to the ship plate, and it is divided into general strength (grade A, grade B and grade D, etc.) and high strength (AH32, AH36, DH32 and DH36, etc.).

 

In addition, the flat bulb steel has strong resistance to in-plane bending and better bearing capacity.
