Product characteristics and application of HEM200 European standard H-beam
wide flange h beam section size
Section height (H): 220mm (Note: the model is marked as 200, the actual height may be close to 220mm due to different designs and series)
Flange width (B): 206mm
Web thickness (t_w): 15mm
Flange thickness (t_f): 25mm
Unit weight: 103 kg/m
Hot rolled steel h beam mechanical properties
Moment of inertia (I_x/I_y): a key indicator for evaluating bending resistance, please refer to the product manual for specific values.
Radius of gyration (r_x/r_y): related to the cross-sectional shape, affecting the structural stability.
Material and standard
Common materials: S235 structural h beam material, S275 h beam material, S355 h beam steel structure material, S355J0/J2 h shaped beam material, etc., in line with European standard EN10025.
Anti-corrosion performance: Weather resistance can be enhanced through surface treatment (such as hot rolling process + anti-corrosion coating), suitable for harsh environments such as chemical industry and marine engineering.
h beam performance characteristics
High load-bearing capacity: The bending strength is better than that of ordinary I-beam, suitable for large-span structures.
Lightweight design: Compared with similar national standard steel, it is lighter and has a more optimized cross-sectional distribution.
Flexible installation: The standard size is convenient for use with other H-beams, simplifying engineering design.
Difference from national standards
Cross-sectional dimensions: The flange width and thickness of the European standard HEM series are usually larger than the same level of national standard H-beam.
Material standards: The national standard is mainly Q235/Q355, while the European standard uses the S series (such as S355 corresponding to Q355), and some European standard models have better corrosion resistance.
