Welcome to our W shapes free CAD downloads page! Here you'll find all American Wide Flange Beam shapes described by the AISC Steel shapes database (V14.1). Sort the table below according to any property and select a CAD file to download …

W-beams - wide flange beams - are stout, sturdy beams with wide flanges positioned perpendicularly to the web of the material giving them their characteristic shape and distinguishing them from I-beams. Properties in imperial units of American Wide Flange Beams according ASTM A6 are indicated below.

American W shapes beam sizes and dimensions for the AISC library.

Wide Flange Beam Dimensions Chart for sizes, dimensions and section properties of steel wide flange beams. Wide flange beams are designated by the letter W followed by the nominal depth in inches and the weight in pounds per foot. Thus W12 × 19 designates a wide flange beam with a depth of 12 inches and a nominal weight of 19 pounds per foot.

Explore the area moment of inertia (second moment of area) with detailed formulas, calculation tools, and reference tables for common shapes. Essential for structural and mechanical engineering applications.

The following webpage tool gives you access to AISC's structural steel shapes in the U.S. This tool is useful in the design process as a reference to determine the general availability, engineering design data of specific structural steel shapes.

Wide Flange Beam Calculator for wide flange beam dimensions and section properties including second area moment of inertia, section modulus and radius of gyration. The wide flange beam (W shape) is a structural steel shape with I (or H) form.
