ISA 20x20x3

Angle (ISA) · IS 808 · India

ISA 20x20x3 is an Indian standard angle with 20 × 20 mm legs, 3.0 mm thick, weighing 0.9 kg/m. The dimensions below are the published IS 808 values; the drawing is generated from them.

ISA angles brace and connect Indian steelwork; an angle bends about tilted principal axes, and the derived principal values below carry their angle.

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 ISA 20x20x3 the computed area is 0.91% from published and Ix 8.41%. Where a value is also published, the published one above is the one to quote.
