AISC — 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 W150x13 steel profile weighs 13.0 kg/m (8.74 lb/ft), has a depth of 148 mm (5.83 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,574.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 596.48 cm⁴, Iy = 81.76 cm⁴.
