HEB profiles – Heavy-Duty Structural Steel Beam to European Standards
HEB profiles are robust and high-capacity structural steel profiles designed for demanding load-bearing applications. These beams are manufactured in accordance with European standards (EN 10034 / EN 10025) and are ideal for structural frameworks where maximum strength and rigidity are required.
Key Characteristics of HEB Profiles
High Load-Bearing Capacity
HEB profiles are engineered for strength. With a thicker web and flanges compared to HEA beams, they are ideal for projects that demand high structural integrity and resistance to bending and shear forces.
Wide and Thick Flanges
Their wide and thick flanges provide excellent resistance to lateral-torsional buckling, making them perfect for both vertical and horizontal load-bearing applications.
Parallel Flanges
Like all European H-profile beams, HEB beams feature parallel flanges, simplifying fabrication, welding, and bolted connections.
European Standard Compliance
Produced to meet EN norms, HEB beams offer consistent quality, dimensional accuracy, and performance across all structural applications.
H-Shaped Cross-Section
The symmetrical H-profile ensures uniform strength distribution, improved stability, and easy alignment during installation.
Common Applications of HEB Profiles
HEB profiles are widely used in structural engineering projects where load-bearing performance is critical, including:
Building Columns and Supports
Used as primary structural supports in multi-story buildings and industrial halls.
Bridges and Overpasses
Common in bridge engineering due to their strength and rigidity.
Industrial Structures
Used in heavy-duty frameworks such as cranes, towers, and mezzanine floors.
Retaining Walls and Foundations
Provide strong reinforcement for retaining structures and deep foundations.
Machine Frames and Equipment Bases
Ideal for high-load machinery and base frames requiring low deflection and high stiffness.
