HEA 200 — Dimensions, Weight & Section Properties
HEA wide-flange beam per EN 10365 (DIN 1025-3)
HEA 200 is a HEA wide-flange beam per EN 10365 (DIN 1025-3), 190 mm tall and 200 mm wide, weighing 42.3 kg per meter. All dimensions and section properties below are the standard published values used in structural design across Europe.
Typical uses: floor beams, columns, frames, and general steel construction. For a quick strength check, use the deflection example below or open the beam calculator with your own span and load.

Deflection example
A simply supported HEA 200 spanning 4 m with a 10 kN point load at midspan deflects 1.72 mm (E = 210 GPa, Ix = 3,692 cm⁴). The L/360 serviceability limit for this span is 11.1 mm — the profile passes this quick check.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does HEA 200 weigh?
HEA 200 weighs 42.3 kg per meter. A standard 6 m bar weighs 253.8 kg and a 12 m bar 507.6 kg. The weight follows from the cross-section area of 53.8 cm² multiplied by the steel density of 7,850 kg/m³.
What are the dimensions of HEA 200?
HEA 200 is 190 mm tall and 200 mm wide, with a web thickness of 6.5 mm, a flange thickness of 10 mm, and a root radius of 18 mm, per EN 10365 (DIN 1025-3).
What is the moment of inertia of HEA 200?
About the strong axis, Ix = 3,692 cm⁴ with a section modulus Wx = 389 cm³. About the weak axis, Iy = 1,336 cm⁴ and Wy = 134 cm³. Use the beam deflection calculator to turn these into deflection and stress for your span and load.
HEA 200 or HEA 220 — what does one size up change?
HEA 220 is about 19% heavier (50.5 vs 42.3 kg/m) but about 47% stiffer (Ix 5,410 vs 3,692 cm⁴). Going one size up is usually the cheapest way to cut deflection, because stiffness grows much faster than weight.
