ISWB 150

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 ISWB 150 steel profile weighs 17.0 kg/m (11.42 lb/ft), has a depth of 150 mm (5.91 in), flange width 100 mm (3.94 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,134.4 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 829.48 cm⁴, Iy = 116.85 cm⁴.
