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 932x260x9.5x15.9 steel profile weighs 132.0 kg/m (88.73 lb/ft), has a depth of 932 mm (36.69 in), flange width 260 mm (10.24 in). Cross-sectional area: 16,819.9 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 231,239.147 cm⁴, Iy = 4,664.072 cm⁴.
