The catalogue reference is the value published by the cited sources. The Formulaxis result is a reproducible calculation from simplified nominal geometry; it can differ because real sections include root fillets and other geometric details, and because published values reflect the sources’ rounding and conventions. This comparison is not a regulatory verification.
| Property | Cross-checked catalogue value | Formulaxis analytical calculation | Analytical / catalogue difference | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Linear mass | 15.8 | 15.2259 | -3.63 % | kg/m |
| Section area | 20.1 | 19.396 | -3.5 % | cm² |
| Second moment of area — major axis | 869.2 | 834.626 | -3.98 % | cm⁴ |
| Second moment of area — minor axis | 68.31 | 68.1533 | -0.23 % | cm⁴ |
| Elastic section modulus — major axis | 108.6 | 104.328 | -3.93 % | cm³ |
| Elastic section modulus — minor axis | 16.66 | 16.6228 | -0.22 % | cm³ |
Difference = (Formulaxis − catalogue) / catalogue. A positive value means the Formulaxis analytical result is higher; a negative value means it is lower.
