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 250x150x6x18 steel profile weighs 52.4 kg/m (35.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 250 mm (9.84 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 6,684 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 7,770.837 cm⁴, Iy = 1,012.885 cm⁴.
