Profile overview for UB 762x267x220

The UB 762x267x220 is a structural steel cross-section utilized in commercial construction, industrial framing, and mechanical engineering. Manufactured as a hot rolled section, it complies with EN 10365 dimensional standards, ensuring predictability in detailing and fabrication.Access to its exact geometric and statical properties is essential for 3D modeling and structural verification.

Geometry: This open profile features a total depth (h) of 779 mm and a flange width (b) of 266 mm, supported by a 16.5 mm thick web and 30 mm thick flanges. With a cross-sectional area of 28070 mm² and a linear mass of 220 kg/m, the UB 762x267x220 offers a distinct stiffness-to-weight ratio for both column (axial) and beam applications.

Section properties: For design of bending, the major and minor axis properties dictate the member's structural capacity. The strong-axis moment of inertia (Iy) of 2793900000 mm⁴ governs major deflection and serviceability limits. To calculate the ultimate bending resistance, engineers may utilize the strong-axis plastic section modulus of 8231000 mm³. For lateral stability and column buckling verifications, the weak-axis moment of inertia (Iz) provides 94430000 mm⁴ of lateral stiffness.

Advanced analysis: For complex load cases, the UB 762x267x220 provides a y-axis shear area (at strong bending axis) of 15960 mm² for web shear verification and a torsion constant of 6205000 mm⁴ for calculating rotational twist under eccentric loading. Additionally, a warping constant of 13190000000000 mm⁶ is available for rigorous lateral-torsional buckling (LTB) checks.
