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 307 x 46,2 steel profile weighs 46.2 kg/m (31.02 lb/ft), has a depth of 307.1 mm (12.09 in), flange width 165.7 mm (6.52 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,877.964 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 9,934.703 cm⁴, Iy = 895.666 cm⁴.
