HEB (European Hot - Rolled Beam) steel follows strict European standards (EN 10034), with dimensions classified by height, flange width, web thickness, and flange thickness. The naming convention uses "HEB" followed by a number indicating the approximate height in millimeters, e.g., HEB 100 (100mm height). Common sizes range from HEB 100 to HEB 1000, with proportional increases in other dimensions:​

HEB 100: Height 100mm, flange width 100mm, web thickness 6mm, flange thickness 10mm​

HEB 200: Height 200mm, flange width 200mm, web thickness 8.2mm, flange thickness 13.5mm​

HEB 300: Height 300mm, flange width 300mm, web thickness 9.5mm, flange thickness 16mm​

These standardized dimensions ensure compatibility across European and international projects, simplifying design calculations and on - site assembly. The symmetrical H - shape balances load distribution in both vertical and horizontal directions, making it ideal for structural supports.
