HEA200 HEB200 S275JR/S355JR h section steel beam
HEA200 and HEB200 steel beams made of S275JR and S355JR materials are wide flange beams (H-beams) under the European standard (EN 10034) and are mainly used in construction and other structural engineering.
Despite the different materials, their main dimensional parameters remain the same, and the main difference lies in the mechanical properties of the material such as yield strength.
Specific dimensions of HEA200 h type steel beam
Height × width: 200 mm × 200 mm
Web thickness (t_w): 8.0 mm
Flange thickness (t_f): 12.0 mm
Weight: about 46.3 kg/m
Cross-sectional area: about 5,900 mm²
Moment of inertia (I_y): about 1,970 cm⁴
Specific dimensions of HEB200 material h beam
Height × width: 200 mm × 200 mm
Web thickness (t_w): 10.0 mm
Flange thickness (t_f): 15.0 mm
Weight: about 57.0 kg/m
Cross-sectional area: about 7,240 mm²
Moment of inertia (I_y): about 2,520 cm⁴
HEA200 and HEB200 have the same nominal height and width (i.e. 200 mm), but their web thickness, flange thickness, weight per meter, cross-sectional area, and moment of inertia differ significantly. HEB steel is heavier than the corresponding HEA steel, has a larger cross-sectional area and higher moment of inertia, and performs better in terms of load-bearing capacity and bending stiffness.
Material Differences
S275JR h-shaped beam: This is a basic carbon structural steel with a yield strength of 275 MPa. Suitable for general construction purposes.
S355JR h-shaped iron beam: This steel is a high-strength low-alloy structural steel with a yield strength of 355 MPa, suitable for applications requiring higher strength.
Applicable Scenarios
HEA200 h-shaped steel beam: Suitable for building structures with medium to heavy loads, such as beams or columns in multi-story buildings, light industrial plants, etc.
HEB200 h type beam: Due to its higher load-bearing capacity and rigidity, it is more suitable for heavy industrial buildings, high-rise buildings or other projects with high requirements for structural stability and strength.
