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 641,0 steel profile weighs 641.4 kg/m (430.99 lb/ft), has a depth of 1048 mm (41.26 in), flange width 412 mm (16.22 in). Cross-sectional area: 81,688.967 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,448,968.78 cm⁴, Iy = 70,167.83 cm⁴.
