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 320 x 97.6 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 | 1,479,264 mm³ |
| Elastic modulus, Wel,y | 465,683 mm³ |
| Plastic modulus, Wpl,x | 1,628,089 mm³ |
| Plastic modulus, Wpl,y | 709,740 mm³ |
| Radius of gyration, rx | 135.8 mm |
| Radius of gyration, ry | 74.9 mm |
Wel is the elastic modulus and Wpl the plastic modulus, following Eurocode 3 notation.
