CISC, welded 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.
Put the I 2000x550x20x35 CISC in a real structure
Opens in the 3D editor already set up as a beam, with supports and load. Change the span and the load, then check it against the code.
The I 2000x550x20x35 steel profile weighs 605.2 kg/m (406.72 lb/ft), has a depth of 2000 mm (78.74 in), flange width 550 mm (21.65 in). Cross-sectional area: 77,100 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 4,914,998.25 cm⁴, Iy = 97,180.75 cm⁴.
