Gerdau · 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 HP 200 x 53,0 steel profile weighs 53.0 kg/m (35.62 lb/ft), has a depth of 204 mm (8.03 in), flange width 207 mm (8.15 in). Cross-sectional area: 6,813.861 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 4,977.208 cm⁴, Iy = 1,673.213 cm⁴.
