Why are steel i-beams used for skyscrapers and not wooden beams? Please help only a few more hours!!

Answer :

i-beams are the choice for structural skyscrapers because of their high functionality.

the shape of i-beams makes them excellent for unidirectional bending parallel to the web.

the horizontal flanges resist the bending movement, while the web resists the shear stress.
