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 600x150x6x12 steel profile weighs 55.4 kg/m (37.24 lb/ft), has a depth of 600 mm (23.62 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 7,056 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 40,676.429 cm⁴, Iy = 676.037 cm⁴.
