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 782x180x9.5x15.9 steel profile weighs 100.9 kg/m (67.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 782 mm (30.79 in), flange width 180 mm (7.09 in). Cross-sectional area: 12,850.9 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 117,423.93 cm⁴, Iy = 1,550.84 cm⁴.
