HEA140 S355J2 H Section Steel is a structural steel beam designed for high-performance load-bearing applications. This particular section has a height of 140 mm, a flange width of 133 mm, a flange thickness of 8.5 mm, and a web thickness of 5.5 mm.
The thick flanges and relatively thin web design provide excellent bending stiffness while keeping the self-weight of the beam moderate. This configuration allows HEA140 to efficiently resist bending moments and shear forces, making it ideal for medium-scale construction projects, including commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and bridge structures.
Manufactured from S355J2 steel, this H-beam offers high yield strength, good toughness at low temperatures, and excellent weldability, ensuring reliable performance in demanding structural applications.
Its standardized dimensions facilitate precise connections, modular construction, and compatibility with other European standard HEA sections.

In a light industrial factory renovation project in Lyon, France, we selected HEA140 S355J2 H-section steel as secondary beams and roof supports to accommodate additional hoisting equipment and mechanical loads.
This steel beam, with a medium-sized cross-section and lightweight design, offers high strength and excellent toughness, making it highly suitable for industrial building reinforcement.
A total of 36 HEA140 beams, weighing approximately 720 tons, were used for the project. During construction, careful layout and precise installation minimized modifications to the existing factory structure, successfully completing the reinforcement while ensuring the building's load-bearing capacity and construction efficiency.
