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 460 x 113,0 steel profile weighs 113.0 kg/m (75.96 lb/ft), has a depth of 463 mm (18.23 in), flange width 280 mm (11.02 in). Cross-sectional area: 14,400.561 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 55,598.587 cm⁴, Iy = 6,334.521 cm⁴.
