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.
The I 700x300x11x25 steel profile weighs 173.9 kg/m (116.85 lb/ft), has a depth of 700 mm (27.56 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 22,150 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 196,111.458 cm⁴, Iy = 11,257.21 cm⁴.
