Understanding the W36x210 reference
The W-shape designation identifies a wide-flange structural steel section. The source data lists the section’s overall depth and width, web thickness, flange thickness, root fillet radius, sectional area, and unit weight. Together, these values describe the physical geometry and mass characteristics needed for reference, drafting coordination, quantity review, and further engineering evaluation.
How to use the listed properties
- Depth and width: Use these dimensions to review the section envelope and coordinate clearances in plans, elevations, and details.
- Web and flange thickness: These values help distinguish the web and flange portions of the shape during connection and detailing reviews.
- Root fillet radius: The fillet affects the transition between the web and flange and should be considered when checking fit-up, copes, seats, and connection geometry.
- Sectional area and unit weight: These properties support material takeoff, mass estimates, and subsequent design calculations performed under the applicable project requirements.
AISC reference and CAD download
The source identifies AISC 360-16 as the governing reference for the displayed W-shape information. The downloadable DWG can support drafting and coordination workflows, but users should verify file units, layer conventions, geometry, and project-specific detailing requirements before incorporating it into production documents.
