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 W920x223 steel profile weighs 223.0 kg/m (149.86 lb/ft), has a depth of 911 mm (35.87 in), flange width 304 mm (11.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 28,256.1 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 371,172.76 cm⁴, Iy = 11,219.88 cm⁴.
