Types of profiles and nomenclature


What are profiles?
Metal profiles are laminated products mainly manufactured for use in building structures or construction.
civil. These profiles are made of metallic materials, such as steel or iron, and are used to form the framework of
a structure. Metal profiles can have different shapes and sizes, such as beams, pillars, tubes or plates, and
they are used in a wide variety of applications, from building construction to machinery manufacturing and
industrial equipment. These profiles provide strength and stability to the structures, allowing for the distribution of
loads and supporting the weight of the structural elements. In addition, the metal profiles can be treated with
processes like shot blasting to improve its strength and durability.
