American Wide Flange Beams

The document provides specifications for American Wide Flange Beams according to ASTM A6 in both imperial and metric units. It includes the beam designation, dimensions, depth, width, web thickness, sectional area, and weight. The standard method to specify a beam is with its depth, width, and weight - for example W 310 x 250 x 79 for a 310mm deep, 250mm wide beam weighing 79 kg/m. Conversion factors are also provided between imperial and metric units.
