ISMB 600

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 600 (México) · Doble T ISMB 600 (Argentina / LATAM) · UB 600 (UK / Australia)

The ISMB 600 steel profile weighs 123.0 kg/m (82.66 lb/ft), has a depth of 600 mm (23.62 in), flange width 210 mm (8.27 in). Cross-sectional area: 15,238.8 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 89,163.99 cm⁴, Iy = 3,141.36 cm⁴.
