Universal columns, also known as UCs, are essential structural steel components used in building construction and other applications. They resemble universal beams (I beams) but are distinguished by their greater width compared to depth. This feature makes them versatile for various construction projects, where they serve as load-bearing support beams or vertical and horizontal supports in steel structures.

Universal columns, with their rectangular cross-section, offer strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion, making them suitable for diverse environments and applications. They are commonly used in the construction of tall buildings where space is limited, thanks to their shallow depth and high width-to-depth ratio. UCs can be customized with options like priming, service and timber holes, or plates for specific project requirements. They are indispensable in ensuring structural integrity and support in buildings, machinery, and equipment manufacturing.
