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 600x111 steel profile weighs 111.0 kg/m (74.59 lb/ft), has a depth of 600 mm (23.62 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 14,144 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 94,090.62 cm⁴, Iy = 7,202.42 cm⁴.
