ʻO ke kila H-ʻano he mea kūkulu hale ikaika loa me ka ʻāpana keʻa e like me ka huapalapala "H". Loaʻa iā ia nā pōmaikaʻi o ke kaumaha māmā, ke kūkulu kūpono, mālama waiwai a me ka lōʻihi kiʻekiʻe. ʻO kāna hoʻolālā cross-sectional kū hoʻokahi e hana maikaʻi loa i ka hiki ke halihali i ka ukana a me ka paʻa o ka hoʻolālā, a hoʻohana nui ʻia i nā papahana hoʻolālā e like me nā hale kiʻekiʻe, nā alahaka, nā mea kanu ʻoihana a me nā hale kūʻai. Hiki ke koho a hoʻopilikino ʻia nā ʻano kikoʻī like ʻole a me nā nui o ke kila H-like e like me nā pono o ka papahana kūikawā e hoʻokō i nā koi hale like ʻole.
ʻO HEA, HEB, a me HEM nā inoa no nā ʻāpana IPE (I-beam) maʻamau o ʻEulopa.
ENH-Shaped Steel he mau inoa no nā ʻāpana IPE (I-beam) maʻamau o ʻEulopa.
ENH-Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka Steel Shaped a he kūpaʻa kūlou maikaʻi, ʻo ka rigidity structural a me ke kūpaʻa corrosion. No laila, hoʻohana nui ʻia i ke kūkulu ʻana, ka hana ʻana i nā mīkini, nā alahaka, nā moku, nā hale kila a me nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Kūlana haole ENH-Shaped Steel e pili ana i ke kila H-like i hana ʻia e like me nā kūlana haole, e pili pinepine ana i ke kila H-like i hana ʻia e like me nā kūlana Japanese JIS a i ʻole nā kūlana ASTM ʻAmelika. ʻO ke kila H-ʻano he ʻano kila me ka ʻāpana keʻa "H".
