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 319 x 151,5 steel profile weighs 151.5 kg/m (101.81 lb/ft), has a depth of 319 mm (12.56 in), flange width 321 mm (12.64 in). Cross-sectional area: 19,316.662 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 33,788.255 cm⁴, Iy = 11,491.01 cm⁴.
