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 310 x 313,0 steel profile weighs 313.2 kg/m (210.48 lb/ft), has a depth of 374 mm (14.72 in), flange width 325 mm (12.80 in). Cross-sectional area: 39,910.142 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 89,560.78 cm⁴, Iy = 27,703.212 cm⁴.
