BR — Wide Flange (I-beam)
Wide flange beams (W shapes / I-beams) are the most common structural steel profile used in building construction. They are used for beams, columns, and girders in steel-framed buildings and bridges. Designed per AISC 360, Eurocode 3, and NBR 8800.
The CVS 300x57 steel profile weighs 56.5 kg/m (37.97 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 200 mm (7.87 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,200 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 11,725 cm⁴, Iy = 1,667.84 cm⁴.
