ISHB 150B

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 150B (México) · Doble T ISHB 150B (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 150 (UK / Australia)

The ISHB 150B steel profile weighs 34.6 kg/m (23.25 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,257.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,569.95 cm⁴, Iy = 508.06 cm⁴.
