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 484,0 steel profile weighs 484.4 kg/m (325.48 lb/ft), has a depth of 823 mm (32.40 in), flange width 390 mm (15.35 in). Cross-sectional area: 61,731.28 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 697,573.565 cm⁴, Iy = 51,663.313 cm⁴.
