Before discussing the difference between ipb, ipe, and inp steel beams, it is necessary to mention some things about steel beams. Steel beams are profiles that are used in various metal structures and the construction industry. Steel beams are galvanized before use to prevent rusting. The main function of steel beams is to withstand stresses caused by shear force and bending moment. Hot rolling is used to produce steel beams. This product has different types, each of which has its own specific application. In addition, the different types of this steel product include multiple categories based on wing ratio and width, and in this article we intend to discuss the main differences between them.

The difference between IPB, IPE, INP beams and their types
Just as types of steel rebar and slabs are divided according to their appearance, types of iron beams are also divided into different categories based on the same criteria. In discussing the differences between IPB, IPE, and INP iron beams, we will examine the most important of them.
Introduction to IPE beams
To explain the difference between ipb, ipe, and inp beams, it is necessary to have a complete and comprehensive description of ipb beams. The ipb beam is a standard based on which wide products with wide wings that look like the English letter H are produced. The beam can be used individually in three models: light, medium, and heavy.
Types of IPE beams
In continuing to explain the difference between IPB, IPE, and INP beams, it is necessary to introduce different types of IPB beams. The different types of IPB profiles include the following.
St52
St44
St37
Of course, it must be acknowledged that the ST44 profile is more efficient and more widely used than the other two profiles.
IPE beam specifications
Just as you need to learn the specifications of the types of rebar to use rebar, it is also necessary to get acquainted with the differences between ipb, ipe, and inp beams. In this regard, we are going to introduce the ipe profile. IPE beam is the abbreviation of the Latin phrase IProfile Eroeenne, which is a type of half-width product. This product is produced according to European standards. The appearance of this type of beam is in the shape of the English letter L. In addition, its two initial and final wings are in the same position. Also, in terms of thickness, the thickness of its wing and web is the same and constant throughout the length of the beam. The height of this product is between 80 and 600 millimeters in standard form. However, in our country, it is produced in sizes of 120 to 300 millimeters.
Appearance specifications of IPE beams
Earlier, during the discussion of the difference between ipb, ipe, and inp beams, it was stated that the appearance of this type of profile is in the shape of a Latin L. Unlike the inp profile, all parts of its wings have a constant thickness. In the inp profile, the wings are thicker in the initial part and the further away from the web, the thickness of the wings will be reduced.
Regarding the types of ipe beams, it should be said that this type of profile is divided into three categories: St 37, St 44, and St52. Also, regarding the applications of this product, it should be stated that it is used in roof construction. In this way, it is used as a truss or column, in the construction of honeycomb bridges, and in the construction of beams in the roof covering, and alongside EDKA rebar and negative moment rebar.
Introduction to INP beams
Another type of iron beam is the INP profile, which is produced according to Chinese and Russian standards. The appearance of the relevant profile is in the shape of the English letter L. The thickness of the wing of this type of product decreases with distance from the web. It is also produced in lengths of 80 to 600 mm. An important point about this type of profile is its cheap price compared to the IPE profile. The reason for this is that this standard has a lower load capacity compared to the IPE product.
Difference between IPE and INP beams
Continuing the discussion of the difference between ipb, ipe, inp beams, it is necessary to explain the difference between iipe and inp beams. If you examine the top of the ipe profile, you will find that the thickness of its wings is completely the same from the initial part to the point where the web is connected to the wing. In fact, the main difference between this type of profile and the inp profile is in this sensitive point, namely the thickness of the web. Because the thickness of the web of these beams is less and their wing width is greater.
While if we examine the inp beam, we will find that the thickness of its wings increases with a gentle slope from the tip of the wing to the point where the wing is connected to the web. The inp profile is a profile with European standards that is standard and normal in terms of structure. When using it and in the executive drawings, this type of beam is identified with an abbreviation along with its height.
Conclusion
In this article, we have discussed the differences between ipb, ipe, and inp beams as much as possible and introduced all three standards in general. Of course, it should be noted that the beams available in our country’s markets, which are more common types, are imported. The vast majority of types of iron beams are imported from China and Russia. Of course, types of iron beams are also imported from other European countries such as Turkey, Germany, Spain, Poland, and South Korea, which are widely used in the construction industry, such as Mannesmann pipes and iron sheets. It should be noted that iron belts are used to move all types of iron beams and all types of metal and steel materials, this is necessary to prevent people from getting hurt.
