Profile overview for W 610x180x82

The W 610x180x82 is a structural steel cross-section utilized in commercial construction, industrial framing, and mechanical engineering. Manufactured as a hot rolled section, it complies with ASTM A 6/A 6M 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 599 mm and a flange width (b) of 178 mm, supported by a 10 mm thick web and 12.8 mm thick flanges. With a cross-sectional area of 10500 mm² and a linear mass of 82 kg/m, the W 610x180x82 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 (I_y) of 560300000 mm⁴ governs major deflection and serviceability limits. To calculate the ultimate bending resistance, engineers may utilize the strong-axis plastic section modulus of 2198000 mm³. For lateral stability and column buckling verifications, the weak-axis moment of inertia (I_z) provides 12080000 mm⁴ of lateral stiffness.

Advanced analysis: For complex load cases, the W 610x180x82 provides a y-axis shear area (at strong bending axis) of 4556.8 mm² for web shear verification and a torsion constant of 490700 mm⁴ for calculating rotational twist under eccentric loading. Additionally, a warping constant of 1033000000000 mm⁶ is available for rigorous lateral-torsional buckling (LTB) checks.
