Derived section properties

Integrated from a square-cornered outline — the fillet radii this family really has are not drawn, so the computed values differ slightly from published. For 2L6X4X7/16LLBB the computed area is 0.24% from published and Ix 0.56%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
