Beam Layout Welding and Fabrication

Beam Layout Welding Slideshare








An average Beam Layout Welding System has 18 conveyor sections. Six of these sections are motorized and drive the rollers using sprockets or chains. Ten motorized sections are connected by chains to the adjacent motorized sections. Two of them are inactive.



On the opposite ends of the web, the two flanges are placed on a conveyor section. They are then rotated to the vertical position and held in place by magnetic guide rollers. The three pieces are moved against a retractable stop, and hydraulically clamped in the correct relative positions. They are manually joined by the operator. The clamps are removed and the tack-welded beam sent to the welder. After setting the clamp positions for the first beam is done, the operator can control material movement using the control panel for any subsequent beams of the same dimensions.

They are generally thinner than H beams when it comes to the web, the center structure or the height I beams. The web is thinner than H beams because the top and bottom flanges of an H beam are farther apart. I beams have flanges that are shorter and narrower.

Frequently Asked Questions

A welded beam consists of three individual sections of steel – a web, a top flange and a bottom flange. These segments are merged together with deep fillet welds to create an incredibly robust building material.
