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 HD 260 x 93 the computed area agrees with the published value to better than 0.01% and Ix to better than 0.01%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Elastic modulus, Wel,x | 1,147,648 mm³ |
| Elastic modulus, Wel,y | 394,963 mm³ |
| Plastic modulus, Wpl,x | 1,282,912 mm³ |
| Plastic modulus, Wpl,y | 602,248 mm³ |
| Radius of gyration, rx | 112.2 mm |
| Radius of gyration, ry | 65.8 mm |
Wel is the elastic modulus and Wpl the plastic modulus, following Eurocode 3 notation.
