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 434,0 steel profile weighs 433.3 kg/m (291.19 lb/ft), has a depth of 813 mm (32.01 in), flange width 387 mm (15.24 in). Cross-sectional area: 55,248.18 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 617,658.131 cm⁴, Iy = 45,513.781 cm⁴.
