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 W410x39 steel profile weighs 38.8 kg/m (26.07 lb/ft), has a depth of 399 mm (15.71 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,905 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 12,339.53 cm⁴, Iy = 403.29 cm⁴.
