Reference catalog values; the table represents profile dimensions and nominal theoretical mass, not confirmed stock. *For tapered-flange beams, flange thickness is a reference dimension; use the applicable profile standard for the complete geometry.

Beam Depth (h)

Overall section height measured between outer flange faces.

Flange Width (b)

Overall flange width determines connection and support detailing.

Web Thickness (tw)

Web thickness and shape are selected from the relevant section designation.

ORDER MASS ESTIMATE

I Beam Steel Weight Calculator

Estimate nominal tonnage from the selected profile's kg/m, finished length and quantity. Use the output for initial pricing and freight planning.

Calculate Your I Beam Order

Estimated total weight2.688 MT134.4 kg per beam

Formula: catalog kg/m × cut length (m) × number of beams ÷ 1000 = total metric tons. Final settlement follows the agreed weighing method and tolerances.

Order Information Checklist

  • Section designation and standard
  • Steel grade and inspection documentation
  • Beam length and quantities by size
  • Cutting or hole drawings when applicable
  • Delivery port and packing preferences

Supplier confirmation covers material grade, production or inventory route, and delivery availability.

BEAM PROCUREMENT QUESTIONS

I Beam Steel FAQ

What details should I send for an I beam quotation?

Share the section designation and dimension standard, steel grade, cut lengths, quantities, inspection scope and destination port.

How do I compare IPE, IPN and GB I sections?

Specify the exact series and size. IPE sections have parallel flanges, while IPN and typical GB I sections use tapered flange profiles. Each series has its own nominal dimensions and weights.

How is the theoretical weight of an I beam order calculated?

Multiply the section's nominal kg/m by the cut length in metres and number of pieces. Divide the result by 1,000 to estimate metric tons.

Can I include a cutting list and inspection certificates?

Attach your drawing, required material grade, cut lengths and MTC or additional inspection scope with your enquiry. These details can be confirmed as part of your quotation.
