About product

A beam that must not look like armor

An extruded profile of white polystyrene, H section, 2.0 mm high, 35 centimeters long. On this shape the flanges are as wide as the profile is high, which is what sets it apart from the slimmer I section, which has a branch of its own.

The most common mistake when building structures is to reach for a heavier profile than would be right. The model does gain strength, but the structure looks armored. The check is quick: multiply the height of the profile by the divisor of the scale. Two millimeters times seventy-two gives 144 millimeters, which is an entirely ordinary ceiling beam of the kind that carries the roof of a hall. The same profile times thirty-five comes out at 70 millimeters, that is a small frame member suitable for a railing or a light platform, not for a main structure. And times twenty-four only 48 millimeters are left, which is more like a door frame.

From that comes the reversed rule: the greater the reduction, the larger the profile for the same structure. Anyone who builds a crane in one to thirty-five and uses a two-millimeter H will get a delicate lattice; at a reduction of one to seventy-two the same material would give a solid main beam.

The profile is cut with a saw or with pliers, the ends are trued up with a file and the joints hold with solvent cement.

A lattice structure can be put together from these profiles as well. Make the main chords from this shape and the infill diagonals from a smaller L section, because that is exactly how real lattice work is designed, and the difference in the thickness of the members makes the structure legible. Glue the joints on a board with a drawn grid, or the structure will twist. What is left of the profile suits stiffeners and column bases.

FAQ

Multiply its height by the divisor of the scale. If the result is a profile that a real structure would neither carry nor need, the material is oversized.

The H shape has flanges as wide as the profile is high, so it is stockier. The I section is slimmer and has a group of its own.

One piece measures thirty-five centimeters. The price is given for this one piece.

Cut it with a fine saw and true the end up with a file. Pliers will squash the profile and the flanges will then not join in one plane.
