TR.19.3 Angle

Angle section

 property-spec = D WF TF R AY AZ
D
Depth of angle (i.e., length of the leg along the local y-axis)
WF
Width of angle (i.e., length of the leg along the local z-axis)
TF
Thickness of angle leg
R
Radius of gyration about principal axis, shown as r(Z-Z) in the AISC manual (this must not be zero)
AY
Shear area in local y-axis. If zero, shear deformation is ignored in the analysis.
AZ
Shear area in local z-axis. If zero, shear deformation is ignored in the analysis.
Tip: If adding an user-provided table angle in the user interface, you can have the program calculate R, AY, and AZ values.
