Which is better wood or steel beam?
I'm just curious, could you help me understand the differences between wood and steel beams? Which one would you recommend for a construction project, and why? Is wood more environmentally friendly than steel? Or does steel offer better structural integrity? I've heard about the cost differences, but how significant are they really? And what about durability? Which material is more likely to last longer? I'm trying to make an informed decision, so your insights would be greatly appreciated.

What is the most commonly used steel beam?
Could you please elaborate on what type of steel beam is the most widely utilized in various construction projects? Is it the I-beam due to its strength and cost-effectiveness, or perhaps the W-beam for its ability to handle heavier loads? Or is there another type that's gaining popularity due to its unique characteristics? Could you also discuss any advantages or disadvantages of the most commonly used steel beam? It would be helpful to understand its suitability for different applications and its impact on the overall structural integrity of a building.
