UB 610x229x101
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.

Flange Thickness : 14.8 mm
Root Fillet Radius : 13 mm
Sectional Area : 128.9 cm2
Unit Weight : 101.2 kg/m
How to read this UB reference
The designation identifies the section as a Universal Beam, while the source data provides the geometric and mass-related information needed for reference and drafting. The listed depth and width describe the overall profile envelope. Web thickness and flange thickness describe the principal plate elements, while the root fillet radius identifies the transition between the web and flange.
The sectional area is useful when reviewing section-property data and material takeoffs. The unit weight expresses the profile’s mass per unit length and can support preliminary quantity checks. These values should be kept distinct from design resistance, stiffness checks, connection capacity, and other project-specific calculations, which require the applicable design method, material specification, loading, restraints, and verification by a qualified engineer.
Drafting and document-control notes
The downloadable DWG is provided as a practical reference for CAD workflows. Before incorporating it into a project drawing, confirm the drawing units, scale, profile orientation, file revision, and compatibility with the project’s section database. The geometry should be checked against the authoritative source data before fabrication or construction documentation is issued.

Frequently asked questions
What type of section is UB 610x229x101?
It is a Universal Beam profile. The page’s source content lists its dimensional and section data for reference.
Which standard is referenced for this profile?
The source references EN 10365:2017, which covers dimensional and related reference information for specified hot-rolled structural steel sections.
What do web thickness and flange thickness describe?
They describe the thicknesses of the beam’s central web and projecting flanges. These dimensions help identify the profile geometry and support drawing or section-comparison work.
What does the unit weight represent?
Unit weight indicates the profile’s mass per unit length. It can be used for preliminary material quantity checks, subject to project documentation and verification requirements.
Can the DWG be used directly for fabrication?
The DWG is a drafting reference, not a substitute for approved project drawings or engineering verification. Check units, geometry, revision status, and the applicable project requirements before use.
