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 414,0 steel profile weighs 414.5 kg/m (278.53 lb/ft), has a depth of 1020 mm (40.16 in), flange width 304 mm (11.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 52,775.767 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 852,455.381 cm⁴, Iy = 21,705.726 cm⁴.
