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 775x260x12.7x12.7 steel profile weighs 126.6 kg/m (85.09 lb/ft), has a depth of 775 mm (30.51 in), flange width 260 mm (10.24 in). Cross-sectional area: 16,123.92 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 140,525.737 cm⁴, Iy = 3,733.049 cm⁴.
