Q: Are beams and joists the same?

• <div><p>No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.</p></div>

Q: Is a wood or steel beam better in a home?

• <div><p>A steel beam is stronger than a wood beam and requires fewer vertical supports underneath, which means it&rsquo;s a better option for larger structures or if you want an open space under your home that doesn&rsquo;t have posts as obstructions. However, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-steel-i-beam-cost.htm">steel I-beams cost</a> more than wood ones, and they can be difficult to install retroactively, as getting them into the basement area can be challenging, if not impossible.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect custom metalwork costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on metal type, fabrication complexity, labor, finishing, and shipping or installation requirements.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to hire a metal fabrication professional?

• <div><p>Professional metal fabricators usually charge around <b>$70 per hour</b>. Three of the largest cost factors are the size and complexity of the project and the price of materials. The type of metal can impact the cost as much as the intricacy of the metal fabrication you want done. Another cost factor is your geographic location, as labor and materials can vary widely depending on the cost of living where you live. </p></div>

Q: Is LVL more affordable than steel I-beams?

• <div><p>Yes, an LVL beam is more affordable than the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-steel-i-beam-cost.htm">cost of a steel I-beam</a>, totaling between $50 and $200 per linear foot as opposed to the $100 to $400 per linear foot you&rsquo;d pay for a steel I-beam. Not only is the wood material more affordable than steel, but it&rsquo;s also more similar to traditional wooden beams and doesn&rsquo;t require as much retrofitting to connect joists. </p></div>
