L10x10x1 — Dimensions and Section Properties

Dimensions and key properties

L10x10x1 drawn to the proportions tabulated below, with the axes at the centroid, x̄ = 2.86″ and ȳ = 2.86″. z is the principal axis of least radius of gyration, the one a compression check uses. The toe radii are not drawn.

Weight: = 64.7 lb/ft
A: = 19 in²
d: = 10 in
b: = 10 in
t: = 1 in
Ix: = 177 in⁴
Sx: = 24.8 in³
Zx: = 45 in³
rx: = 3.05 in
ry: = 3.05 in
rz: = 1.92 in
