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 84,0 steel profile weighs 84.0 kg/m (56.45 lb/ft), has a depth of 596 mm (23.46 in), flange width 226 mm (8.90 in). Cross-sectional area: 10,586.871 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 60,388.994 cm⁴, Iy = 2,255.279 cm⁴.
