SAISC, hot-rolled 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 W 137 x 10,1 steel profile weighs 10.1 kg/m (6.75 lb/ft), has a depth of 136.6 mm (5.38 in), flange width 73 mm (2.87 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,280.822 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 407.461 cm⁴, Iy = 33.83 cm⁴.
