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 W200x22 steel profile weighs 22.3 kg/m (14.99 lb/ft), has a depth of 206 mm (8.11 in), flange width 102 mm (4.02 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,810 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,954.78 cm⁴, Iy = 141.87 cm⁴.
