- How it is measured
- A is the flange width; B is the web height; C is the thickness. CR: rounded edge. It is a different profile, not the same size.
How much do the lengths weigh?
| 6 m lengths | 1 | 5 | 10 | 25 | 50 | 100 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weight | 2.01 kg | 10.05 kg | 20.1 kg | 50.3 kg | 100.5 kg | 201 kg |
| Metres | 6 m | 30 m | 60 m | 150 m | 300 m | 600 m |
How much load does the 32 × 32 × 2 T section take?
Supported at both ends, with the load at midspan: how many kilos it takes before it bends more than 1/200 of the span (what windows and light structures usually accept) or goes past the elastic limit of 6063-T5 aluminium.
| Span | 0.5 m | 1 m | 1.5 m | 2 m |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Upright (32 mm high) | 57 kg* | 21 kg | 9.3 kg | 5.3 kg |
| Flat (32 mm high) | 36 kg* | 9.3 kg | 4.1 kg | 2.3 kg |
Moment of inertia 1.24 cm⁴ upright · 0.55 cm⁴ flat; section modulus 0.54 cm³ upright · 0.34 cm³ flat. * Here the strength of the material governs, not the deflection. A guidance calculation for a straight beam with sharp corners, E = 69 GPa, without its own weight or buckling of thin walls: for a structure, the check must be done by an engineer.
