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 610x305x179 steel profile weighs 179.0 kg/m (120.29 lb/ft), has a depth of 620.2 mm (24.42 in), flange width 307.1 mm (12.09 in). Cross-sectional area: 22,574.4 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 151,154.61 cm⁴, Iy = 11,405.39 cm⁴.
