Deflection example
A simply supported HEB 200 spanning 4 m with a 10 kN point load at midspan deflects 1.11 mm (E = 210 GPa, Ix = 5,696 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 HEB 200 weigh?
HEB 200 weighs 61.3 kg per meter. A standard 6 m bar weighs 367.8 kg and a 12 m bar 735.6 kg. The weight follows from the cross-section area of 78.1 cm² multiplied by the steel density of 7,850 kg/m³.
What are the dimensions of HEB 200?
HEB 200 is 200 mm tall and 200 mm wide, with a web thickness of 9 mm, a flange thickness of 15 mm, and a root radius of 18 mm, per EN 10365 (DIN 1025-2).
What is the moment of inertia of HEB 200?
About the strong axis, Ix = 5,696 cm⁴ with a section modulus Wx = 570 cm³. About the weak axis, Iy = 2,003 cm⁴ and Wy = 200 cm³. Use the beam deflection calculator to turn these into deflection and stress for your span and load.
HEB 200 or HEB 220 — what does one size up change?
HEB 220 is about 17% heavier (71.5 vs 61.3 kg/m) but about 42% stiffer (Ix 8,091 vs 5,696 cm⁴). Going one size up is usually the cheapest way to cut deflection, because stiffness grows much faster than weight.
