Lost in Translation

(OP)
Hello,
   I've recently been assigned a project doing analysis of a structure. The problem is that the structure is in Brasil, and thus the drawings I've been given are in portuguese. All I have to go by for the beam specifications is that they are  Viga I 36" and Viga I 12" Alma 2deg which as far as I can tell are a 36" I beam and a 12" I beam with a 2deg soul(web?). Does anyone have experience working with Brazilian standards, or know of a good resource I can use to find section details? Thanks, any help is hugely appreciated.
