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 285,0 steel profile weighs 285.7 kg/m (192.02 lb/ft), has a depth of 647 mm (25.47 in), flange width 329 mm (12.95 in). Cross-sectional area: 36,356.551 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 260,724.623 cm⁴, Iy = 22,063.99 cm⁴.
