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 360 x 122,0 steel profile weighs 121.7 kg/m (81.77 lb/ft), has a depth of 363 mm (14.29 in), flange width 257 mm (10.12 in). Cross-sectional area: 15,501.742 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 36,534.687 cm⁴, Iy = 6,147.023 cm⁴.
