Cintac, 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 200x150x4x5 steel profile weighs 17.7 kg/m (11.92 lb/ft), has a depth of 200 mm (7.87 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,260 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,654.883 cm⁴, Iy = 281.351 cm⁴.
