Understanding the Standard H-Beam Sizes Commonly Used in Indonesia

In the construction world, H-Beam is one of the most frequently used structural steel materials. With its "H" shape, this steel has high strength to support heavy loads, making it widely used in high-rise buildings, bridges, warehouses, and other large infrastructure.

However, before using it, it's crucial to understand the applicable H-Beam size standards in Indonesia to ensure they meet project requirements.

Standard H-Beam Sizes in Indonesia
H-Beams are available in various sizes on the market. These sizes are usually determined by the height (H), flange width (B), and flange thickness (t) in millimeters (mm).

Some common H-Beam sizes used in Indonesia include:

• H-Beam 100 x 100 x 6 x 8 mm
• H-Beam 150 x 150 x 7 x 10 mm
• H-Beam 200 x 200 x 8 x 12 mm
• H-Beam 250 x 250 x 9 x 14 mm
• H-Beam 300 x 300 x 10 x 15 mm
• H-Beam 400 x 400 x 13 x 21 mm

The larger the size, the higher the load-bearing strength, making it suitable for projects with large structures.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an H-Beam Size
Project Type
A high-rise building will certainly require a larger H-Beam size than a simple warehouse frame.

Supported Load
Technical calculations must be performed by a structural engineer to determine the appropriate size for safety.

Cost Efficiency
Using an H-Beam that is too large can increase costs, while one that is too small can pose a safety risk.

H-Beam Applications Based on Size
Small sizes (100–200 mm) → lightweight frames, warehouses, or canopies.

Medium sizes (200–300 mm) → mid-rise buildings, small bridges, and factories.

Large sizes (300–400 mm and above) → large bridges, skyscrapers, piers, and national infrastructure projects.

Conclusion
H-Beams are available in various standard sizes commonly used in Indonesia, ranging from 100 mm to 400 mm. Selecting the right size must consider the project type, structural loads, and cost efficiency to ensure a stronger, safer, and more economical construction.
