INP section weight table

INP (IPN) sections are taper flange I beams, the classic type, still often requested for repairs and crane runways. Below is the theoretical weight of 23 common sizes, in steel with a density of 7.85 g/cm³.

Calculation formula

kg/m = section area (cm²) × 0.785. For HEA, HEB, HEM and IPE the area is calculated exactly from h, b, tw, tf and the root radius r per EN 10365; for INP, UPN and UPE the manufacturers’ tabulated area is used.
