Mention 2 advantages of I shape of iron beams used in building construction
Dear Student
An I beam is nearly as strong as a solid rectangular bar of the same overall dimensions, and its weight is considerably less. A large rectangular steel beam on a certain span might collapse under its own weight whereas an I - beam of the same depth would carry much added load.
