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 450x150x5x10 steel profile weighs 40.4 kg/m (27.17 lb/ft), has a depth of 450 mm (17.72 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,150 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 17,835.292 cm⁴, Iy = 562.948 cm⁴.
