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 341,0 steel profile weighs 340.7 kg/m (228.94 lb/ft), has a depth of 661 mm (26.02 in), flange width 333 mm (13.11 in). Cross-sectional area: 43,368.551 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 318,280.024 cm⁴, Iy = 27,090.336 cm⁴.
