Angelina TM - Castellated steel beam with sinusoidal openings

DESCRIPTION

Sleek, open, transparent and flexible, the Angelina TM beam offers a new architectural dimension within an environmentallyfriendly approach. Thanks to a reduced production time and substantial material savings, Angelina TM meets the economic requirements of your projects, while ensuring optimum safety.

Made from H or I beams cut through the web along a sinusoidal line with the two T-sections then being offset and welded together, the resulting Angelina TM beam is one and a half times the height of the original profile.
