AHMSA, welded sections · 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 I 1473x406.4x11.1x19.1 steel profile weighs 246.9 kg/m (165.92 lb/ft), has a depth of 1473 mm (57.99 in), flange width 406.4 mm (16.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 31,450.76 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,093,670.233 cm⁴, Iy = 21,383.336 cm⁴.
