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 1100 x 390,0 steel profile weighs 391.7 kg/m (263.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 1100 mm (43.31 in), flange width 400 mm (15.75 in). Cross-sectional area: 49,882.143 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,008,306.261 cm⁴, Iy = 38,583.939 cm⁴.
