iron beams
Structural metal bars
Iron beams are structural supports made of iron, used in construction to bear weight and span distances.
Before steel became dominant in the late 19th century, iron beams were essential to bridges, buildings, and industrial structures: The old warehouse still rests on its original iron beams.
The phrase often evokes industrial-era architecture or appears in discussions of building renovation.
