L 63x63x8
AISC — Angle Section
Angle sections (L shapes) are used for bracing, connections, lintels, and built-up members. Available in equal and unequal leg configurations.
The L 63x63x8 steel profile weighs 7.2 kg/m (4.85 lb/ft), has a depth of 63.5 mm (2.50 in), flange width 63.5 mm (2.50 in). Cross-sectional area: 940.9 mm². Moment of inertia Ix = 35.18 cm⁴, Iy = 35.18 cm⁴.
