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 W200x59 steel profile weighs 59.0 kg/m (39.65 lb/ft), has a depth of 210 mm (8.27 in), flange width 205 mm (8.07 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,474.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 6,043.99 cm⁴, Iy = 2,040.05 cm⁴.
