What does W mean in steel beams?
The W in its name refers to “wide flanges.” The main difference between W beams is that the inner and outer flange surfaces are parallel. Furthermore, the overall beam must have a depth that is at least equal to the flange width. Usually, its depth is significantly greater than its width.
