HEA 220
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 220 steel profile weighs 50.5 kg/m (33.94 lb/ft), has a depth of 210 mm (8.27 in), flange width 220 mm (8.66 in). Cross-sectional area: 6,156 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 5,184.21 cm⁴, Iy = 1,952.67 cm⁴.
