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 250 x 67,0 steel profile weighs 67.1 kg/m (45.10 lb/ft), has a depth of 257 mm (10.12 in), flange width 204 mm (8.03 in). Cross-sectional area: 8,558.511 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 10,364.292 cm⁴, Iy = 2,223.658 cm⁴.
