There are essentially two types of beams - "W" beams or "wide flange beams" and "S" beams which are commonly referred to as "I beams". An "S10x25.4" beam, for example is a "S" beam that is 10" tall and weighs 25.4 lbs/ft. Simply taking some measurements of the beam height and the width/thickness of the flanges and webs will allow you to determine what it is...
