A: Common H-beam weights (per meter) vary by size: Light H-beams (H100×100×6×8) weigh ~17.2kg/m; medium specification (H300×150×6.5×9) ~48.3kg/m; heavy specification (H500×200×10×16) ~118kg/m; and extra-heavy specification (H900×300×16×28) ~364kg/m. Weight is calculated by the formula: Weight (kg/m) = 0.00785 × [H×d + 2×B×t – 2×t×d], where H=height, B=width, d=web thickness, t=flange thickness. Accurate weight data is critical for transportation (load capacity of trucks) and structural design (calculating bearing loads).
