VS 350x36

BR — 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 VS 350x36 steel profile weighs 36.2 kg/m (24.33 lb/ft), has a depth of 350 mm (13.78 in), flange width 160 mm (6.30 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,612.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 10,249.22 cm⁴, Iy = 648.83 cm⁴.
