In a slab heating furnace of walking beam- or pusher-type, particularly for the heating of steel prior to the hot working of the steel, skid beams are supported by water-cooled posts. In order to reduce the number of the water-cooled posts from that in the prior art, a post head having a trough shaped portion is stationarily located on each of the posts. The length of the post head is longer than the outer diameter of the post provided with said post head. The total withdrawal of heat from heated steel to all of the post heads is considerably small, because the number of posts is reduced from that of the prior art due to the structure of the post heads. The posts are preferably arranged in a zigzag pattern.
