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 67,0 steel profile weighs 67.3 kg/m (45.21 lb/ft), has a depth of 454 mm (17.87 in), flange width 190 mm (7.48 in). Cross-sectional area: 8,554.941 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 29,465.545 cm⁴, Iy = 1,454.406 cm⁴.
