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 225A (México) · Doble T ISHB 225A (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 225 (UK / Australia)
The ISHB 225A steel profile weighs 46.8 kg/m (31.45 lb/ft), has a depth of 225 mm (8.86 in), flange width 225 mm (8.86 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,873.5 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 5,408.64 cm⁴, Iy = 1,728.67 cm⁴.
