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 W760x185 steel profile weighs 185.0 kg/m (124.32 lb/ft), has a depth of 770 mm (30.31 in), flange width 267 mm (10.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 24,783.1 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 236,434.99 cm⁴, Iy = 8,080.55 cm⁴.
