H20 Timber Beams from Senweida – Lightweight, Durable, and Reusable for High-Rise and Bridge Construction
Xuzhou Senweida Trading Co., Ltd., a comprehensive building materials enterprise based in Pizhou – the “Capital of China’s Wood Industry” – is proud to present its premium H20 timber beams, engineered to meet the demanding requirements of high-rise building and bridge construction projects.
As an engineered wooden beam widely used in concrete formwork systems, the H20 timber beam is an internationally recognized structural component that plays a vital role in supporting slabs, walls, and columns during concrete pouring-. Senweida's H20 timber beams are manufactured from imported high-quality pine for the flanges and multi-layer plywood for the web, bonded into an I-shaped section with weather-resistant adhesive and coated with anti-corrosion and waterproof paint on the surface.
Superior Engineering for Demanding Applications
The H20 timber beam features a 200mm height and 80mm width cross-section, with flange dimensions of 40×80mm and a web thickness of 26mm-. At a lightweight of approximately 4.8–5.2 kg per linear meter, the beam offers exceptional load-bearing capacity with an allowable bending moment of 5.0 kN·m and shear force of 11 kN-. This remarkable strength-to-weight ratio makes it significantly lighter than steel beams while providing superior stability compared to basic wood beams.
Key Advantages:
-
Lightweight & High Strength – Easy to handle and transport, reducing labor costs and assembly time
-
High Rigidity & Strong Bearing Capacity – Ensures structural stability during concrete pouring
-
Warp-Resistant & Durable – Maintains straightness and dimensional accuracy over repeated use
-
Waterproof Coating – Surface treatment resists water, acid, and alkali, extending service life
-
High Reusability – With proper maintenance, H20 beams can be reused 30–50 times or more, significantly reducing formwork costs over time
-
Customizable Lengths – Available in any length up to 5.9 meters, with flexibility to meet specific project requirements
Proven Across Diverse Construction Scenarios
Senweida's H20 timber beams have been successfully deployed in a wide range of construction applications, including housing complexes, high-rise buildings, and bridges, providing optimal support and durability across diverse construction environments-. The beams are widely used in slab formwork, wall formwork, column formwork, bridge construction, tunnel construction, and infrastructure engineering-. Their adaptability makes them particularly suitable for complex structures, including hydraulic and hydroelectric projects, culverts, and high-rise structures.
The H20 timber beam formwork system typically incorporates 18mm plywood as the formwork skin, with H20 beams serving as primary and secondary beams, supported by steel props or scaffolding-. This system enables fast assembly, easy operation, and significant material and time savings on construction sites.
Commitment to Quality and Service
Leveraging the advantages of the local wood industry cluster in Pizhou, Senweida implements strict quality control throughout the entire production process – from raw material selection to final inspection. Guided by the principles of “integrity, quality first, and customer foremost,” the company offers stable product quality, flexible customization, and efficient supply capacity to clients worldwide.
For contractors and project managers seeking to reduce overall formwork costs while maintaining high structural integrity, Senweida's H20 timber beams represent a proven, cost-effective solution. Custom lengths and specifications are available upon request.
