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 300x100x4x5 steel profile weighs 17.0 kg/m (11.40 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,160 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 2,988.8 cm⁴, Iy = 83.488 cm⁴.
