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 762x406.4x9.5x22.2 steel profile weighs 195.2 kg/m (131.15 lb/ft), has a depth of 762 mm (30.00 in), flange width 406.4 mm (16.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 24,861.36 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 276,219.445 cm⁴, Iy = 24,840.05 cm⁴.
