IMCA, 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 1244x360x9.5x22.2 steel profile weighs 214.9 kg/m (144.43 lb/ft), has a depth of 1244 mm (48.98 in), flange width 360 mm (14.17 in). Cross-sectional area: 27,380.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 733,249.87 cm⁴, Iy = 17,271.291 cm⁴.
