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 W610x125 steel profile weighs 125.0 kg/m (84.00 lb/ft), has a depth of 612 mm (24.09 in), flange width 229 mm (9.02 in). Cross-sectional area: 15,793.1 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 97,423.14 cm⁴, Iy = 3,930.98 cm⁴.
