IMCA, hot-rolled 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 W 364 x 162,1 steel profile weighs 162.1 kg/m (108.93 lb/ft), has a depth of 364 mm (14.33 in), flange width 371 mm (14.61 in). Cross-sectional area: 20,436.92 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 51,063.892 cm⁴, Iy = 18,559.83 cm⁴.
