Runs locally in your browser. No inputs are stored or submitted. Reference use only. The beam and section-finder results are elastic screening calculations, not code-compliant member designs. They do not evaluate load combinations, lateral-torsional buckling, local buckling, shear, stability, connections, vibration, or other limit states. Have a licensed professional verify project-specific use. Data source & limits ## Traceable AISC shape data with units, sources, and practical limits. Dimensions and properties are derived from the [AISC Shapes Database v16.0](https://www.aisc.org/aisc/publications/steel-construction-manual/aisc-shapes-database-v160/), consistent with the AISC Steel Construction Manual, 16th Edition, 1st Printing. AISC advises that its database should not be relied on for a specific application without competent professional examination and verification. DXF profiles here use nominal listed dimensions and simplify rolled fillets, flange tapers, and HSS corner radii where noted.
