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 150A (México) · Doble T ISHB 150A (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 150 (UK / Australia)
The ISHB 150A steel profile weighs 30.6 kg/m (20.56 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 3,808.8 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,504.79 cm⁴, Iy = 506.9 cm⁴.
