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 500x134 steel profile weighs 133.8 kg/m (89.91 lb/ft), has a depth of 500 mm (19.69 in), flange width 350 mm (13.78 in). Cross-sectional area: 17,050 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 76,292.99 cm⁴, Iy = 11,440.95 cm⁴.
