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 250x250x8x14 steel profile weighs 68.9 kg/m (46.31 lb/ft), has a depth of 250 mm (9.84 in), flange width 250 mm (9.84 in). Cross-sectional area: 8,776 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 10,487.637 cm⁴, Iy = 3,646.781 cm⁴.
