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 W690x192 steel profile weighs 192.0 kg/m (129.02 lb/ft), has a depth of 701 mm (27.60 in), flange width 254 mm (10.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 24,173.8 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 195,318.3 cm⁴, Iy = 7,640.01 cm⁴.
