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 533x210x101 steel profile weighs 101.0 kg/m (67.87 lb/ft), has a depth of 536.7 mm (21.13 in), flange width 210 mm (8.27 in). Cross-sectional area: 12,728.5 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 60,666.34 cm⁴, Iy = 2,690.96 cm⁴.
