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 W410x60 steel profile weighs 60.0 kg/m (40.32 lb/ft), has a depth of 407 mm (16.02 in), flange width 178 mm (7.01 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,493.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 21,268.68 cm⁴, Iy = 1,204.6 cm⁴.
