IAS, 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 600x230x9.5x22.2 steel profile weighs 121.6 kg/m (81.72 lb/ft), has a depth of 600 mm (23.62 in), flange width 230 mm (9.06 in). Cross-sectional area: 15,490.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 98,852.36 cm⁴, Iy = 4,505.76 cm⁴.
