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 361 x 174,3 steel profile weighs 174.3 kg/m (117.11 lb/ft), has a depth of 361 mm (14.21 in), flange width 378 mm (14.88 in). Cross-sectional area: 22,147.622 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 50,837.389 cm⁴, Iy = 18,389.804 cm⁴.
