IPE AA 180

European I-Beam (IPE) · EN 10365 · Europe

IPE AA 180 is a European parallel-flange I-beam 176.4 mm deep with a 91.0 mm wide flange, weighing 14.9 kg/m. The dimensions below are the published EN 10365 values; the drawing is generated from them.

IPE sections are the European parallel-flange I-beam series — the standard flexural member of Eurocode practice.

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 IPE AA 180 the computed area agrees with the published value to 0.01% and Ix to 0.01%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
