H section is used for the support columns in most modern steel-frame buildings. In both real and model applications this section offers a good strength and resistance to bending under vertical axial loads. Both the flange and web sections contribute to support for the load, while preventing the other from distorting. In models H section can also be used as a stiffener for flat surfaces and provide extra strength and rigidity at load-bearing locations on a model.
