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 533.4x203.2x7.9x9.5 steel profile weighs 62.2 kg/m (41.81 lb/ft), has a depth of 533.4 mm (21.00 in), flange width 203.2 mm (8.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,924.56 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 35,455.705 cm⁴, Iy = 1,330.558 cm⁴.
