IS — Wide Flange (I-beam)
Wide flange beams (W shapes / I-beams) are the most common structural steel profile used in building construction. They are used for beams, columns, and girders in steel-framed buildings and bridges. Designed per AISC 360, Eurocode 3, and NBR 8800.
Also known as: ISHB 150 (México) · Doble T ISHB 150 (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 150 (UK / Australia)
The ISHB 150 steel profile weighs 27.1 kg/m (18.21 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 3,412.8 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,447.29 cm⁴, Iy = 506.42 cm⁴.
