VS 800x111

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 800x111 steel profile weighs 111.5 kg/m (74.93 lb/ft), has a depth of 800 mm (31.50 in), flange width 320 mm (12.60 in). Cross-sectional area: 14,200 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 155,073.96 cm⁴, Iy = 6,829.97 cm⁴.
