ISWB 225

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 225 steel profile weighs 33.9 kg/m (22.78 lb/ft), has a depth of 225 mm (8.86 in), flange width 150 mm (5.91 in). Cross-sectional area: 4,283.3 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 3,898.64 cm⁴, Iy = 557.32 cm⁴.
