"Tipos de vigas de alma aligerada.
Se pueden considerar los siguientes tipos de vigas aligeradas:
a) Vigas alveoladas (alveolos hexagonales o ciculares)
b) Vigas alveoladas peraltadas"
You can see a drawing of this type of beam on page 36 of this document:

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

cellular wide-flange beams
I think this could be the answer, or at least an answer. See:
"Exposed steel HSS and cellular wide-flange beams form
the dramatic central atrium of the Gaylord Opryland Hotel Texas."
The beams in the accompanying picture look just like yours, to my eye.

For further back-up, see the references I have posted. Note, by the way, that "cellular beams" are mentioned in the wikipedia page on I-beams as "the modern version of the traditional ‘castellated’ beam which results in a beam approximately 40-60% deeper than its parent section". Cellular or castellated means perforated. The greater depth is the "peraltadas" part, because the depth or web of a beam is "peralte" in Spanish.

elevated honeycomb beam
'peraltado' in the context of an arch means 'stilted'. From your drawing I think it may just mean elevated or raised. The hexagonal alveolar shape is thus extended upwards.
I have not actually come across such a structure before, hence my low confidence level, but this might give you some leads.
The references below refer to honeycomb beams which are open (to produce lightness without losing strength), and may be useful:

built-up castellated beam
"Castellated beam" is your basic term, i.e. a beam cut lengthwise in a zigzag cut, then staggered and welded together at the zigs (or zags?).
A castellated beam is probably a "built-up (or made-up) beam" in its own right, but "castellated" covers that already. Adding "built-up (or made-up)" to call it a "built-up (or made-up) castellated beam" might well indicate the deepening of the web, but I have not actually encountered this term.
Otherwise "deepened castellated beam", maybe.
CASTELLATED BEAMS are made by cutting a hot rolled beam lengthwise, often using a circular or hexagonal pattern. The top and bottom pieces are staggered and welded together. The web openings accommodate the integration of mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire suppression runs.
http://www.newmill.com/products/products_castellated_beams.h...
CASTELLATED BEAMS have a number of specific possibilities and advantages. They are light and strong. They are cheap. Easy to assemble at the construction site. The openings in the web simplify the work of the installer and the electrician, since taking pipes across beams presents no problems. After all, the web of the beam already has many wide openings by nature. Secondary constructional elements such as ceiling systems, can also be installed easily. And castellated beams are ELEGANT.(2)

peraltadas
I think this refers to wide-flange I-beams, known as W-beams. I base this on the following:
1) Your picture
2) "¿cuales son las vigas peraltadas y cuando deben usarse?
[...]
La viga peraltada es también conocida como viga "W". Tienen, si las ves en un corte transversal, forma de " i " latina mayúscula, a la parte vertical le llaman peralte y las dos partes horizontales se llaman patínes."
http://espanol.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090806...
3) analogy with the sense of peraltado applied to arches, as quoted by Gilla (see DRAE).
4) "Steel Wide Flange I-Beams", with illustration just like yours, at
http://www.efunda.com/math/areas/RolledSteelBeamsW.cfm
5) See also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam#Cellular_Beams
I think the "alveoladas" part is "honeycomb", as Gilla says, but what bothers me is that I can't find instances of "honeycomb wide flange beam" or "honeycomb W-beam".
Regards from a "Google translator"!
