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 454 x 67,1 steel profile weighs 67.1 kg/m (45.10 lb/ft), has a depth of 453.6 mm (17.86 in), flange width 189.9 mm (7.48 in). Cross-sectional area: 8,552.469 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 29,409.696 cm⁴, Iy = 1,452.135 cm⁴.
