How do you size a structural steel beam?

To calculate the necessary depth of a beam, divide the span (in inches) by 20. For example, a 25′ span would be 25×12 / 20 = 15”. The width of this beam would be between 1/3 and ½ the depth.

What is the thickness of beam?

2. Minimum Thickness of Beams

Beam span	Beam type	Span/depth ratio
Up to 10m	Simply supported	20
Cantilever	7
Continuous	26
Greater than 10m	Simply supported	20*10/span

How thick are steel beams?

In the United States, steel I-beams are commonly specified using the depth and weight of the beam. For example, a “W10x22” beam is approximately 10 in (25 cm) in depth (nominal height of the I-beam from the outer face of one flange to the outer face of the other flange) and weighs 22 lb/ft (33 kg/m).

How wide is an I beam?
