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 400x200x6x14 steel profile weighs 61.5 kg/m (41.31 lb/ft), has a depth of 400 mm (15.75 in), flange width 200 mm (7.87 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,832 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 23,442.529 cm⁴, Iy = 1,867.336 cm⁴.
