Universal BeamGrade: S355

457 x 191 x 98 kg Universal Beam S355

457 x 191 x 98 kg Universal Beam S355 is a universal beam measuring 467.4 × 192.8 mm, the workhorse profile for horizontal spans where depth can be traded against weight. Because most of the steel sits in the flanges, this profile is efficient in major-axis bending but comparatively weak about the minor axis — lateral-torsional restraint at the compression flange is usually what governs the design.

At 98 kg per metre, one tonne buys roughly 10.2 linear metres. This is a substantial member. Connection design, bearing detail and temporary stability all deserve attention at the drawing stage. Supplied in grade S355 to BS EN 10025-2, cut to your lengths and delivered worldwide. Heat numbers are traceable back to the rolling mill, with EN 10204 3.1 certificates issued against each delivery.

Typically specified for portal-frame rafters, opening lintels in load-bearing walls, transfer beams over removed walls, mezzanine framing and steel-framed extensions.

Where a beam bears on masonry, remember to specify padstones separately — they are a design item, not part of the steel supply.
