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 690 x 192,0 steel profile weighs 191.5 kg/m (128.71 lb/ft), has a depth of 702 mm (27.64 in), flange width 254 mm (10.00 in). Cross-sectional area: 24,382.442 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 197,932.043 cm⁴, Iy = 7,642.571 cm⁴.
