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 250x100x4x10 steel profile weighs 22.9 kg/m (15.40 lb/ft), has a depth of 250 mm (9.84 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,920 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,287.233 cm⁴, Iy = 166.789 cm⁴.
