ISWB 175

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 175 steel profile weighs 22.1 kg/m (14.85 lb/ft), has a depth of 175 mm (6.89 in), flange width 125 mm (4.92 in). Cross-sectional area: 2,779.2 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 1,498.71 cm⁴, Iy = 241.15 cm⁴.
