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.
Put the I 944x225x12.7x22.2 IMCA in a real structure
Opens in the 3D editor already set up as a beam, with supports and load. Change the span and the load, then check it against the code.
The I 944x225x12.7x22.2 steel profile weighs 168.2 kg/m (113.00 lb/ft), has a depth of 944 mm (37.17 in), flange width 225 mm (8.86 in). Cross-sectional area: 21,414.92 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 289,307.086 cm⁴, Iy = 4,229.887 cm⁴.
