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 450x300x8x10 steel profile weighs 74.1 kg/m (49.80 lb/ft), has a depth of 450 mm (17.72 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 9,440 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 34,345.467 cm⁴, Iy = 4,501.835 cm⁴.
