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: ISMB 100 (México) · Doble T ISMB 100 (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 100 (UK / Australia)
The ISMB 100 steel profile weighs 8.9 kg/m (5.98 lb/ft), has a depth of 100 mm (3.94 in), flange width 50 mm (1.97 in). Cross-sectional area: 1,104.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 176.56 cm⁴, Iy = 14.66 cm⁴.
