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 760 x 220,0 steel profile weighs 220.6 kg/m (148.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 779 mm (30.67 in), flange width 266 mm (10.47 in). Cross-sectional area: 28,071.58 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 278,206.223 cm⁴, Iy = 9,441.316 cm⁴.
