HEA 140
EN — Wide Flange (I-beam)
Wide flange beams (W shapes / I-beams) are the most common structural steel profile used in building construction. They are used for beams, columns, and girders in steel-framed buildings and bridges. Designed per AISC 360, Eurocode 3, and NBR 8800.
The HEA 140 steel profile weighs 24.7 kg/m (16.60 lb/ft), has a depth of 133 mm (5.24 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 3,018 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 995.24 cm⁴, Iy = 388.89 cm⁴.
