UB 457x191x82
Universal Beams
refer to : EN 10365:2017
a European standard that defines the dimensions, tolerances, and sectional properties for hot-rolled steel channels, I-beams, and H-beams used in construction and engineering. It ensures uniformity and compatibility across European structural steel products.

How to read this UB reference
The designation identifies a Universal Beam entry, while the detailed source data provides the dimensional and mass information needed for identification and coordination. The dimension fields should be read together rather than treated as a substitute for the complete section record.
Dimensions and section data
The listed depth, width, web thickness, flange thickness, and root fillet radius describe the section’s principal geometry. These values are useful when checking clearances, preparing fabrication or erection drawings, coordinating connections, and comparing the beam with related Universal Beam sections.
The sectional area and unit weight support material takeoffs and preliminary engineering calculations. Final member selection, resistance checks, stability checks, connection design, and detailing should be completed using the applicable project requirements and verified engineering procedures.
Standard and CAD reference
The source cites EN 10365:2017 for the dimensional and sectional reference. The downloadable DWG can assist with drafting and layout work, but CAD geometry should be checked against the project’s approved design information before fabrication or construction use.

Frequently asked questions
What does UB mean?
UB means Universal Beam. The source entry provides the section’s identifying designation and principal reference data.
Which standard is referenced for this beam?
The source references EN 10365:2017, which covers dimensional, tolerance, and sectional information for specified hot-rolled structural steel sections.
What information is included in this reference?
The entry includes the beam dimensions, depth, width, web thickness, flange thickness, root fillet radius, sectional area, and unit weight, together with a DWG download reference.
Can the listed section data replace a structural design check?
No. The data supports identification, drafting, and preliminary coordination, but member selection and design verification must account for the project requirements, loading, restraint, connections, material specification, and applicable design rules.
