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 W360x64 steel profile weighs 64.0 kg/m (43.01 lb/ft), has a depth of 347 mm (13.66 in), flange width 203 mm (7.99 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,945 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 17,351.17 cm⁴, Iy = 1,883.44 cm⁴.
