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 800x129 steel profile weighs 128.6 kg/m (86.42 lb/ft), has a depth of 800 mm (31.50 in), flange width 320 mm (12.60 in). Cross-sectional area: 16,384 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 187,572.77 cm⁴, Iy = 8,741.41 cm⁴.
