UNSPSC 30101504: Steel angles

UNSPSC 30101504 Steel angles (Commodity) covers structural steel beams and piles that state and local governments procure for infrastructure projects—specifically W-beams, H-piles, I-beams, and related rolled-steel structural elements. The code shows active solicitation for fabricated steel components delivered to job sites, with evaluation focused heavily on cost and compliance rather than design innovation. Issuing bodies span county highway and bridge departments, state agriculture facilities, and specialized infrastructure divisions; county governments dominate recent activity, particularly those managing bridge construction and roadway projects.

Recent opportunities center on Greenville County, South Carolina, which has posted multiple IFBs for structural steel delivery to its Bridge Yard. Greenville County's IFB #27022, due October 9, 2026, seeks 12 W-beams in two size profiles (27-inch depth, varying weights and lengths, all 27 feet long) with price weighted at 99 percent and responsiveness at 1 percent; delivery is F.O.B. destination with net 30-day payment terms and a tentative award of October 15, 2026. An earlier Greenville County IFB #27014, closed September 3, 2026, requested 24 H-piles (12 inches × 53 pounds per linear foot in two length options: 30 feet and 40 feet) with similar pricing dominance, a $1 million per occurrence general liability requirement, and performance bonds equal to total contract price. Illinois Department of Agriculture also solicited under this code in April 2026 for I-beams and metal plates totaling $3,900 for State Fair Building and Grounds work. The code shows limited recent activity outside South Carolina county bridge work; no nationwide geographic spread is evident from current postings.
