75 x 50 x 5 UA

Unequal Angle · AS/NZS 3679.1 · Australia / New Zealand

75 x 50 x 5 UA is an unequal angle with 75 × 50 mm legs, 4.6 mm thick, weighing 4.4 kg/m. The dimensions below are the published AS/NZS 3679.1 values; the drawing is generated from them.

Unequal Angles put the longer leg where connection or stiffness demands it; like every angle they buckle about tilted principal axes, and the principal pair is published here.

Derived section properties

Integrated from the section's own outline including the root and toe radii, whose arcs are integrated analytically rather than approximated by facets. For 75 x 50 x 5 UA the computed area agrees with the published value to 0.09% and Ix to 0.07%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
