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 951x300x9.5x25.4 steel profile weighs 186.8 kg/m (125.50 lb/ft), has a depth of 951 mm (37.44 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 23,791.9 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 384,249.091 cm⁴, Iy = 11,436.432 cm⁴.
