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 608,0 steel profile weighs 607.6 kg/m (408.30 lb/ft), has a depth of 725 mm (28.54 in), flange width 351 mm (13.82 in). Cross-sectional area: 77,443.951 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 630,715.565 cm⁴, Iy = 55,062.805 cm⁴.
