From designation to geometry
Reading the Pipe10XXS record
The Manual label Pipe10XXS and electronic designation Pipe10SCH140 identify this pipe record. Nominal pipe size is an identifier: use the listed OD = 10.75 in and ID = 8.94 in for the reference envelope.
The record contains tnom = 1 in and tdes = 0.93 in. Keep the listed wall fields and schedule or weight-class identifier together; a pipe label alone does not establish the project material specification.
Ix = 354 in⁴ and Iy = 354 in⁴ refer to the database x- and y-axes. The two listed values are equal. Axis letters are labels, not a guarantee that x is always the larger axis. These are geometric properties, not allowable loads or complete member capacities.
Match the axis and dimension conventions to the figures in the AISC v16.0 workbook Readme. The profile above simplifies manufacturing geometry; its outline is not used to recalculate the published properties.
Worked quantity example
Nominal weight for Pipe10XXS
Assume 3 pieces, each 20 ft (6.096 m) long. This is a hypothetical quantity example, not a stock-length or lifting recommendation.
| Quantity | Calculation | Nominal pounds | Kilogram equivalent |
|---|---|---|---|
| One 20 ft piece | 20 ft × 104 lb/ft | 2,080 lb | 943.472 kg |
| 3 pieces | 3 × 2,080 lb | 6,240 lb | 2,830.416 kg |
Conversion: 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg; displayed results are rounded. This multiplication excludes connection plates, bolts, weld metal, coatings, cutting allowances and actual material variation. Use the material takeoff for your own lengths and quantities.
Shape family context
What is a structural pipe section?
A PIPE entry describes a circular section using nominal pipe size and a schedule or weight class. Its outside diameter may remain constant across schedules while wall thickness, inside diameter, weight, and properties change.

Verify product specification, schedule, wall thickness, end preparation, connection fit, galvanizing or venting, and do not assume pipe and round HSS requirements are interchangeable.

Compare published reference values
Pipe10XXS alongside nearby PIPE records
These records share the same nominal series, outside envelope or leg arrangement, depending on the family. Peers are ordered by absolute weight difference, then listed depth and designation. The table does not rank structural performance or approve a substitution.
| Record | Weight (lb/ft) | Outside diameter (in) | Area (in²) | Ix (in⁴) | Iy (in⁴) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pipe10XXS (this record) | 104 | 10.75 | 28.8 | 354 | 354 |
| Pipe10XS | 54.8 | 10.75 | 15.1 | 199 | 199 |
| Pipe10STD | 40.5 | 10.75 | 11.5 | 151 | 151 |
Relative to Pipe10XXS, Pipe10XS changes nominal weight by -49.2 lb/ft, listed outside diameter by 0 in, and area by -13.7 in². At the same hypothetical 20 ft length, the nominal weight difference is -984 lb.

Data is derived from the AISC Shapes Database v16.0, consistent with the AISC Steel Construction Manual, 16th Edition, 1st Printing. AISC advises professional verification before use in a specific application. The downloadable DXF is a nominal reference profile and may simplify rolled fillets, flange tapers, angle radii, HSS corner radii, and other manufacturing geometry. Verify all dimensions and suitability before design, detailing, ordering, or fabrication.
