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 287,0 steel profile weighs 287.3 kg/m (193.07 lb/ft), has a depth of 393 mm (15.47 in), flange width 399 mm (15.71 in). Cross-sectional area: 36,627.422 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 99,706.172 cm⁴, Iy = 38,782.992 cm⁴.
