āIā-Beam ā Standard
The nomenclature for steel shapes follows two standards: For wide flange, bearing pile, S-shapes, channels, and tees: the letter indicates the shape, the first number indicates the nominal height, and the second number indicates the weight per 1 foot of length.
Standard weight: We calculate the standard weight as follows: G = L * mweight, where L is the length of the beam calculated as the difference between the extreme points of the beam body along the direction of the beam axis, taking into account all features except holes.
