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 450x206 steel profile weighs 206.1 kg/m (138.50 lb/ft), has a depth of 450 mm (17.72 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 26,253 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 92,088.09 cm⁴, Iy = 14,197.12 cm⁴.
