VS 700x154

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 700x154 steel profile weighs 153.7 kg/m (103.29 lb/ft), has a depth of 700 mm (27.56 in), flange width 320 mm (12.60 in). Cross-sectional area: 19,577.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 183,367.61 cm⁴, Iy = 12,236.18 cm⁴.
