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 610 x 140,0 steel profile weighs 140.5 kg/m (94.43 lb/ft), has a depth of 617 mm (24.29 in), flange width 230 mm (9.06 in). Cross-sectional area: 17,858.131 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 112,023.79 cm⁴, Iy = 4,513.9 cm⁴.
