Deflection example
A simply supported HEA 360 spanning 7 m with a 10 kN point load at midspan deflects 1.03 mm (E = 210 GPa, Ix = 33,090 cm⁴). The L/360 serviceability limit for this span is 19.4 mm — the profile passes this quick check.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does HEA 360 weigh?
HEA 360 weighs 112 kg per meter. A standard 6 m bar weighs 672 kg and a 12 m bar 1,344 kg. The weight follows from the cross-section area of 143 cm² multiplied by the steel density of 7,850 kg/m³.
What are the dimensions of HEA 360?
HEA 360 is 350 mm tall and 300 mm wide, with a web thickness of 10 mm, a flange thickness of 17.5 mm, and a root radius of 27 mm, per EN 10365 (DIN 1025-3).
What is the moment of inertia of HEA 360?
About the strong axis, Ix = 33,090 cm⁴ with a section modulus Wx = 1,891 cm³. About the weak axis, Iy = 7,887 cm⁴ and Wy = 526 cm³. Use the beam deflection calculator to turn these into deflection and stress for your span and load.
HEA 360 or HEA 400 — what does one size up change?
HEA 400 is about 12% heavier (125 vs 112 kg/m) but about 36% stiffer (Ix 45,070 vs 33,090 cm⁴). Going one size up is usually the cheapest way to cut deflection, because stiffness grows much faster than weight.
