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 610x305x149 steel profile weighs 149.2 kg/m (100.26 lb/ft), has a depth of 612.4 mm (24.11 in), flange width 304.8 mm (12.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 18,770.5 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 124,006.62 cm⁴, Iy = 9,305.21 cm⁴.
