Dimensions and section properties for W10X54 w wide flange beam
W10X54 Wide Flange H Beam Model Meaning
W: stands for Wide-Flange Beam, i.e. H-shaped steel, with the width of the flange close to the height of the web, and an "H"-shaped cross section with excellent bending resistance.
10: Indicates that the cross-sectional height of the steel is approximately 10 inches (254mm) (the actual size is subject to the standard).
54: Indicates that the weight per foot of length is approximately 54 pounds (lb/ft), converted to metric units:
Weight per meter ≈ 80.4 kg/m (54 lb/ft × 1.4882 = 80.36 kg/m).

W10X54 wide flange beam production and standards
Production process: hot rolling, flange and web are rolled into shape at one time, with high precision and smooth surface.
Implementation standards:
USA: ASTM A6 (general standard for steel), material standards such as ASTM A36 h section steel, A992 steel h beam.
Equivalent standards: China Q355B h beam (close to A992), Europe S355JR structural steel h beam.
W10X54 h beam wide flange performance advantages
High strength and stiffness: The flange width is similar to the section height (close to square), and the two-way bending resistance is balanced, which is suitable for bearing complex loads (such as beam and column integrated frame structure).
Efficient section design: The material distribution is far away from the neutral axis of the section, and the bending resistance is better than ordinary I-beam (I-beam) under the same weight.
Convenient connection: The wide flange is easy to bolt or weld, suitable for building rigid nodes (such as steel frame beam-column connection).
