CISC, hot-rolled 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 W 1000 x 371,0 steel profile weighs 371.3 kg/m (249.52 lb/ft), has a depth of 1000 mm (39.37 in), flange width 400 mm (15.75 in). Cross-sectional area: 47,280.767 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 813,732.471 cm⁴, Iy = 38,582.421 cm⁴.
