Notes:
|
|
»
|
Weight calculation based on 490 pcf density material (steel).
|
|
»
|
The results noted with "lb" and "kg" units in
the table above are actually "lbf" and "kgf".
|
|
»
|
Beam axes based on X-axis oriented along the member's length with
Y- and Z- axes as shown in the figure on the right.

» How do I use this calculator?
|
1. |
Select units of your input data [default is U.S. units].
|
|
2. |
Enter the beam data - height, flange width and thickness, and web thickness.
|
|
3. |
Click on the "calculate" button and beam section property results
will be displayed in the "results" table. |
|
4. |
Optional input includes box plate thickness. Leave blank or set to
zero to not include in calculations. Set to value greater than
zero to include in calculations. |
