Polar Moment of inertia [mm4, in4] |
= Center of Gravity Location [mm, in] | |
= Center of Gravity Location [mm, in] | |
A |
= Height fillet weld [mm, in] |
B |
= Width of weld [mm, in] |
s | = Web thickness [mm, in] |
L | = Length of weld [mm, in] |
r | = Weld radius [mm, in] |
t | = Flange thickness [mm, in] |
H | = Height of fillet weld group [mm, in] |
