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 375 x 216,3 steel profile weighs 216.3 kg/m (145.33 lb/ft), has a depth of 375 mm (14.76 in), flange width 394 mm (15.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 27,356.68 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 70,665.577 cm⁴, Iy = 28,250.701 cm⁴.
