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 375,0 steel profile weighs 374.4 kg/m (251.62 lb/ft), has a depth of 391 mm (15.39 in), flange width 330 mm (12.99 in). Cross-sectional area: 47,736.782 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 112,784.497 cm⁴, Iy = 34,370.905 cm⁴.
