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 569 x 1089,0 steel profile weighs 1089.0 kg/m (731.77 lb/ft), has a depth of 569 mm (22.40 in), flange width 454 mm (17.87 in). Cross-sectional area: 138,382 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 595,252.189 cm⁴, Iy = 196,212.901 cm⁴.
