The standard method for specifying the dimensions of a American Wide Flange Beam is for example W 6 x 25, which is 6 inches deep with a weight of 25 lb/ft.
I-shaped cross-section beams:
- Britain : Universal Beams (UB) and Universal Columns (UC)
- Europe : IPE. HE. HL. HD and other sections
- US : Wide Flange (WF) and H sections
