What are Parallel Flange Beams and Parallel Flange Columns?
Parallel flange beams and columns are structural elements used in construction and engineering projects. They have a wide flange shape with parallel sides and are commonly used in steel-framed buildings, bridges, and other structures to support loads and distribute weight evenly. These elements are known for their strength, durability, and ability to withstand heavy loads. They come in various sizes and can be easily customized to fit specific design requirements.

Parallel flange Beams and Parallel Flange Columns by JSP Structurals
Jindal Steel and Power Limited (JSPL) is a pioneer in the production of hot-rolled parallel flange beams and columns in India. These products are widely utilized in building construction and infrastructure projects due to their outstanding strength and durability. The parallel flange beam and parallel flange column design offers superior design optimization compared to tapered beams, with multiple sectional weights available for the same nominal depth. JSPL was also the first in India to introduce parallel flange beams as a local alternative to imported products, thereby leading the way in advancing the Indian construction industry.

FAQs
What is parallel flange beam?
A parallel flange beam is a structural product used in construction, featuring parallel flanges (horizontal sections) connected by a vertical web, providing strength and support in buildings and bridges. One of the most adaptable varieties of steel beams are parallel flange channels, or PFCs. The diameters, thicknesses, and sizes of PFC channels vary greatly, but they are all generally built of hot-rolled structural steel that has a distinct C-shaped cross-section.
What are the benefits of using parallel flange beams and columns?
Parallel flange beams and columns offer several benefits, including:
Strength: Parallel flange beams and columns are very strong and can withstand heavy loads.
