An aluminum alloy beam is a lightweight structural component used in concrete formwork systems, designed to support formwork panels and distribute loads during the concrete pouring process. It provides stable support for slabs and other concrete structures while enhancing construction efficiency and reducing the need for manual handling.
Aluminum I-Beams
Trico's Aluminum I-Beams are compatible with all other manufacturers of Aluminum Joists, Beams and Stringers. The extruded aluminum I-beam is used for all structural applications where higher strength is required.
Aluminum I-Beam has been the standard of the industry for decades. Given aluminum's strength and lightweight properties these beams provide an optimal working combination. Aluminum allows the construction to minimize the number of total horizontal and vertical members required on the job compared to wood beams. Labor productivity is also maximized due to the lightweight beams when compared to steel.

The I-Beam comes complete with a plastic nailer strip. This is formulated to provide nail gripping properties comparable to wood, and will not become soft in hot weather, nor brittle, nor crack in extreme cold. Plastic nailers are much more durable than wood and will withstand repeated use as plastic is apt to self-heal upon fastener removal.
Applications of Aluminum Beams
Widely used in formwork support systems for slabs, walls, columns, and beams; especially suitable for projects in coastal and high-humidity areas that require durable, corrosion-resistant support beams.
Aluminum I-Beams Features and Benefits
High strength-to-weight ratio—delivers superior load-bearing performance while reducing the need for extensive overall support systems.
Weather resistance and durability—maintains stable structural performance even in humid or harsh environmental conditions.
Long service life and cost-effectiveness—exceptional durability reduces the frequency of replacements; additionally, high recyclability and residual value allow for profitable resale, significantly lowering total project costs.
Lightweight and easy to handle—lightweight design accelerates installation and dismantling, boosting productivity and handling efficiency on the construction site.
Reliable alternative to timber beams—an ideal substitute for traditional timber beams, particularly suitable for construction projects in coastal and high-humidity regions.
