EN — 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 UB 254x102x22 steel profile weighs 22.0 kg/m (14.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 254 mm (10.00 in), flange width 101.6 mm (4.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,752 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,771.37 cm⁴, Iy = 119.23 cm⁴.
