Beam tables

Steel beam dimension & weight tables

Dimensions, section area and weight per metre for every IPE, HEA, HEB and UPN section to EN 10365, plus the weight of a 12 m bar — and request a price for any size in one click.

Table symbols

h: Section height
b: Flange width
tw: Web thickness
tf: Flange thickness
r: Root radius
A: Section area

Nominal values from the standard section tables (EN 10365 / DIN 1025 / DIN 1026). Delivered weight may vary within permitted rolling tolerances. Bars are usually 12 m and can be cut to length.

IPE beam table (parallel flange)

Parallel-flange I-beams — the number is the height in mm. The most common choice for roof and secondary beams.

Frequently asked questions

What does an IPE 200 weigh per metre?

An IPE 200 weighs about 22.4 kg per metre, so a 12 m bar is roughly 269 kg. It is 200 mm high with a 100 mm flange.

What is the difference between HEA and HEB?

Both are wide-flange H-sections. HEA is the light series and is shorter than its nominal number (HEA 300 is 290 mm high); HEB is the heavy series, matches its number (HEB 300 is 300 mm) and has thicker flanges and web — 117 kg/m against 88.3 kg/m.

How do I calculate the weight of a beam of a given length?

Multiply the weight per metre from the table by the length in metres and the number of bars. Example: 10 bars of HEB 200 × 12 m = 61.3 × 12 × 10 = 7,356 kg ≈ 7.36 t.

What is a UPN section?

UPN is a U-shaped channel with inner tapered flanges; the number is its height in millimetres. It is used for frames, chassis, bracing and as a lighter structural member.
