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 300x100x4x6 steel profile weighs 18.4 kg/m (12.40 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,352 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,389.702 cm⁴, Iy = 100.154 cm⁴.
