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 583,0 steel profile weighs 584.8 kg/m (393.01 lb/ft), has a depth of 1056 mm (41.57 in), flange width 314 mm (12.36 in). Cross-sectional area: 74,465.367 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,246,737.54 cm⁴, Iy = 33,436.682 cm⁴.
