457 x 152 x 74 kg Universal Beam S355
457 x 152 x 74 kg Universal Beam S355 is a universal beam measuring 461.3 × 152.7 mm, the workhorse profile for horizontal spans where depth can be traded against weight. The web is thin relative to the flanges, so any large service penetration or a heavy point load over the bearing will need stiffening or a web-opening check.
