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.
Put the I 900x240x12.5x25 IAS in a real structure
Opens in the 3D editor already set up as a beam, with supports and load. Change the span and the load, then check it against the code.
The I 900x240x12.5x25 steel profile weighs 177.6 kg/m (119.35 lb/ft), has a depth of 900 mm (35.43 in), flange width 240 mm (9.45 in). Cross-sectional area: 22,625 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 293,721.354 cm⁴, Iy = 5,773.835 cm⁴.
