Universal beams, commonly used in construction for structural support, are available in a variety of sizes. These sizes are typically identified by their nominal depth and width, along with their weight per meter, which indicates their strength and mass.
Examples of Universal Beam Sizes
Based on common specifications, here are some examples of universal beam sizes, detailing their nominal designation, weight per meter, and approximate actual dimensions:
| Nominal Size | Weight (KG/m) | Actual Depth (mm) | Actual Width (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 127 x 76 x 13KG | 13.0 | 127.0 | 76.0 |
| 152 x 89 x 16KG | 16.0 | 152.4 | 88.7 |
| 178 x 102 x 19KG | 19.0 | 177.8 | 101.2 |
| 203 x 102 x 23KG | 23.1 | 203.2 | 101.8 |
| 203 x 133 x 25KG | 25.1 | 203.2 | 133.2 |
| 203 x 133 x 30KG | 30.0 | 206.8 | 133.9 |
| 254 x 102 x 22KG | 22.0 | 254.0 | 101.6 |
| 254 x 102 x 25KG | 25.2 | 257.2 | 101.9 |
As shown in the table, the size designation like "203 x 133 x 25KG" indicates a beam with a nominal depth of approximately 203mm, a nominal width of approximately 133mm, and a weight of 25 kilograms per meter. The actual dimensions can vary slightly depending on the specific weight and profile.
It is important to note that this table provides examples of universal beam sizes. A complete range includes many more sizes, extending to much larger dimensions and heavier weights to accommodate diverse structural load requirements in buildings, bridges, and other constructions.
