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 W530x92 steel profile weighs 92.0 kg/m (61.82 lb/ft), has a depth of 533 mm (20.98 in), flange width 209 mm (8.23 in). Cross-sectional area: 11,639.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 54,394.29 cm⁴, Iy = 2,378.06 cm⁴.
