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 UC 305x305x137 steel profile weighs 136.9 kg/m (92.00 lb/ft), has a depth of 320.5 mm (12.62 in), flange width 309.2 mm (12.17 in). Cross-sectional area: 17,243.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 32,451.82 cm⁴, Iy = 10,697.28 cm⁴.
