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 650x252 steel profile weighs 252.0 kg/m (169.34 lb/ft), has a depth of 650 mm (25.59 in), flange width 450 mm (17.72 in). Cross-sectional area: 32,100 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 248,643.75 cm⁴, Iy = 37,989.23 cm⁴.
