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 1544x360x9.5x22.2 steel profile weighs 237.3 kg/m (159.47 lb/ft), has a depth of 1544 mm (60.79 in), flange width 360 mm (14.17 in). Cross-sectional area: 30,230.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,192,463.199 cm⁴, Iy = 17,273.434 cm⁴.
