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 351 x 131,9 steel profile weighs 131.9 kg/m (88.62 lb/ft), has a depth of 351 mm (13.82 in), flange width 373 mm (14.69 in). Cross-sectional area: 16,819.622 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 37,477.718 cm⁴, Iy = 13,505.402 cm⁴.
