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 W410x46 steel profile weighs 46.1 kg/m (30.98 lb/ft), has a depth of 403 mm (15.87 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,800.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 15,254.3 cm⁴, Iy = 513.3 cm⁴.
