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 1876x600x9.5x38.1 steel profile weighs 493.1 kg/m (331.39 lb/ft), has a depth of 1876 mm (73.86 in), flange width 600 mm (23.62 in). Cross-sectional area: 62,818.1 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 4,323,011.917 cm⁴, Iy = 137,172.859 cm⁴.
