JSP has recently installed Corrugated (Sinusoidal) Web Beam technology from Zeman, Austria at our Angul Plant, marking a pivotal step towards enhancing the efficiency, performance, and durability of our structural members. This cutting-edge technology is poised to revolutionise how steel structures are assessed and managed, offering a multitude of benefits to pre-engineered buildings, sheds, and warehouses.
The Corrugated Web Beam represents a breakthrough in structural engineering. Comprising wide plate flanges welded to a corrugated web, this built-up girder exhibits remarkable strength and stability. The innovative design allows for flexibility in flange width, ranging from 120 mm to 450 mm, and web depth from 333 mm to 1500 mm, accommodating diverse structural framing requirements. Notably, the corrugation of the web significantly enhances its stability against buckling, resulting in substantial savings in structural steel usage.
The most suitable application for a SIN beam is as a replacement for a joist or joist girder section or as an alternative to a wide flange shape that is welded or rolled. With the least amount of production time, it offers cost-effective options for greater spans and excellent load-bearing capacity.
The implementation of corrugated web girders results in significant material savings by reducing the need for web stiffeners and large-span trusses. This is primarily attributed to the utilisation of corrugated sheets for the web, which enhances its buckling strength. Furthermore, the adoption of thinner webs further contributes to the cost-effectiveness of the structure. The design methodology ensures adequate safety margins, enhancing structural reliability.
