In Canada and the United States, steel I-beams are commonly specified using the depth (in inches) and weight of the beam (in pounds per foot). For example, a “4 x 13” I-beam is approximately 4 inches in depth (the measurement taken from the outer face of the first flange, to the outer face of the opposite flange).

What does W21x44 mean?
When a beam size begins with “W,” it means the beam’s flanges are not equal to the thickness of the web. The second number (i.e. W21x44) indicates the weight per foot of the beam. So in this example, a wide flange beam that is W21x44 has two flanges that are each 21 inches long and a weight of 44 pounds per foot.

What is the difference between wide flange and I-Beam?
1) What’s the difference between I-beam and wide flange beam? An I-beam has tapered flanges with a narrower flange than most wide flange beams, making it a lighter building material. A wide flange beam, with wider flanges and web than the I-beam, can handle more weight, but this makes it heavier overall.
Is I beam stronger than H beam?
An H beam has a thicker central web, which means that it is generally stronger. An I beam generally has a thinner central web, which means that it is often not able to receive as much force as an H beam.
