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 303 x 93,4 steel profile weighs 93.4 kg/m (62.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 303 mm (11.93 in), flange width 308 mm (12.13 in). Cross-sectional area: 11,888.822 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 19,633.786 cm⁴, Iy = 6,386.519 cm⁴.
