ISLB 300A

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.

The ISLB 300A steel profile weighs 41.5 kg/m (27.89 lb/ft), has a depth of 300 mm (11.81 in), flange width 140 mm (5.51 in). Cross-sectional area: 5,185.6 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 7,994.55 cm⁴, Iy = 531.3 cm⁴.
