British Steel, 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 1000 x 314,0 steel profile weighs 314.0 kg/m (211.01 lb/ft), has a depth of 999.9 mm (39.37 in), flange width 300 mm (11.81 in). Cross-sectional area: 40,039.277 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 644,063.053 cm⁴, Iy = 16,231.738 cm⁴.
