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 W150x22 steel profile weighs 22.0 kg/m (14.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 152 mm (5.98 in), flange width 152 mm (5.98 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,811.4 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,190.41 cm⁴, Iy = 386.52 cm⁴.
