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 610x229x101 steel profile weighs 101.2 kg/m (68.01 lb/ft), has a depth of 602.6 mm (23.72 in), flange width 227.6 mm (8.96 in). Cross-sectional area: 12,753.5 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 74,665.87 cm⁴, Iy = 2,913.75 cm⁴.
