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 400x300x6x14 steel profile weighs 83.5 kg/m (56.08 lb/ft), has a depth of 400 mm (15.75 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 10,632 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 33,876.822 cm⁴, Iy = 6,300.67 cm⁴.
