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 W360x101 steel profile weighs 101.0 kg/m (67.87 lb/ft), has a depth of 357 mm (14.06 in), flange width 255 mm (10.04 in). Cross-sectional area: 12,697.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 29,670.52 cm⁴, Iy = 5,060.41 cm⁴.
