Steel Box Sections - Commonly referred to as hollow steel sections, these products are similar to the steel bars we supply but with open ends to the section that make them look like a tube. Steel box sections come in three primary shapes: square, rectangular, and circular. Rectangular hollow sections are not as common as UCs and UBs. This is down to the fact that it is much more difficult to bolt it to other beams or to bolt other members to it. They are also available in mild steel to make drilling and welding easier. While a machine’s maximum “hoop size” corresponds to the largest design size it can stitch in one pass, it’s possible to use different sizes of embroidery hoops on a machine.

Rugs can be a focal point of a room; it is a statement piece that immediately draws attention. A rug’s colour, pattern, and texture play a key role in helping tie together different elements of a room, such as artwork, curtains, or upholstery. Selecting the right rug Hollow sections (RHS, SHS, and CHS) are available in metric sizes which are common both in the UK and across the continent. Hot finished hollow sections are supplied in accordance with EN10210 and in EN10219 for cold formed hollow sections. Although the sections dimension may be identical for both hot finished and cold formed, the capacities are not direct equivalents so care is required to ensure the correct grade is requested. Universal Beams - Otherwise referred to as I beams or RSJ beams, these are often used for load-bearing projects, such as a structural framework for buildings.Every embroidery machine is programmed with a maximum size of design that it can stitch at one time. The embroidery industry’s term for this value is the “hoop size” of the machine. At Steel Beam Suppliers, we understand how vital it is for your building’s structure to be completely safe, no matter how large or small the project scale. Universal beams may even be considered as the bones or skeletal structure of a building, which is why we ensure that they are of the highest quality standards, including the EN10025 standards. Universal Beam vs. Universal Column RSJ steel beams are likely the most popular kind of steel beams used in the construction sector today. Both I-beams and H-beams are highly durable RSJs or rolled steel joists which can be cut to any size. This makes them great for supporting the ceilings and floors in a home extension, for instance. Rugs, especially large and extra large rugs, can serve several purposes in a room. A large rug can help create boundaries between different zones, particularly in open-plan living areas, and anchor furniture pieces, such as a sofa or dining table, which can make a space look more organised and cohesive. First, above is what Brother calls my 4″x4″ hoop. As you can see, the plastic hoop itself is not 4″x4″ but closer to 5.5″x7″ around the edge.

Universal Columns - Also known as H beams, the differences in their design compared to steel beams make them perfect for use as vertical supports. However, this “hoop size” is really just a rounded value of the embroidery field or embroidery stitching area. It’s always possible to use a compatible smaller hoop if the design fits into that hoop’s embroidery field. For instance, on my 5″x7″ embroidery machine, I can use a 4″x4″ or 1″x2.5″ hoop for small designs. When selecting a large rug, make sure it is the right size for the desired space. Keep in mind the dimensions of the room and the placement of furniture in it. Choose a rug that is large enough to anchor the space but not so large that it overwhelms it.Now, below are the most common Brother embroidery hoop sizes. I’ve also listed popular machines for each size if you’re looking for a new machine.

In the UK sections are generally produced according to BS 4-1:1993, which converts imperial sizes to metric (26″ becomes 914mm), whereas on the continent the dimensions are truly metric. And, one last thing. The embroidery field is not always smaller than the hoop size. For instance, a 5″x7″ hoop can accommodate a 5.12″x7.09″ design on my Brother machine!
