This standard was revised in 1964, In the second revision of this standard, parts relating to medium weight beam sections — MB. series, column sections — SC series, channel sections — MC and MCP series and equal and ‘unequal leg angles were revised and published as Parts 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 of IS 808, respectively. Sections not covered in these parts, however, continued in 18 808: 1964, In the present revision, the Sectional Committee felt it convenient to merge all the five parts into one standard, The sections which were retained in IS 808 : 1964 subsequent to its second revision in five parts are included in this standard with a view that these sections although not being rolled in the country at present may in future be rolled owing to their efficiency and resultant economy in the use of steel. However, the designers are advised to check from JPC/producers regarding availability of such sections, Following additional modifications have been affected in this revision: 1) Medium weight beam sections MB 100 having the flange width and web thickness of 70 mm and 4.5 mm, respectively, has been modified to 50mm flange width and 4.7mm web thickness; ) Two sections, namely, BFB 150 and RSJ 200 which are mainly used in railway electrification have been included as SC 150 and WB 200, respectively; ©) Additional equal leg angles 60 60 x 4, 100 100 x7 (in place of 100 100 x 6.5), and 180 130 x 9 have been included in the supplimentary list; 4) Amendments issued so fur to the various parts of the standard and to IS 808 : 1964 have been, incorporated; and ©) Mass, area and other sectional properties have been expressed in three significant places, ‘This edition 4.1 incorporates Amendment No, 1 (July 1992). Side bar indicates modification of the text as the result of incorporation of the amendment.IS 808 : 1989 Indian Standard DIMENSIONS FOR HOT ROLLED STEEL BEAM, COLUMN, CHANNEL AND ANGLE SECTIONS ( Third Revision ) 1 SCOPE ‘This standard covers the nominal dimensions, mass and sectional properties of hot rolled sloping flange beam and column sections, sloping and parallel flange channel sections and equal and unequal leg angle sections. 2 REFERENCES, ‘The Indian Standard IS 1852 : 1985 ‘Rolled and cutting tolerances for hot rolled steel produets (fourth revision Y is a necessary adjunct to this standard, SECTION 1 GENERAL, 3 TERMINOLOGY 3.1 Y-¥ Axis A line parallel to the axis of the web of the section (in the ease of beams and channels) or parallel to the axis of the longer flange (in the ‘ease of unequal angles) or either flange (in the ‘ease of equal angles) and passing through the centre of gravity of the profile of the section. 3.2. X-X Axis A line passing through the centre of gravity of ‘he profile of the section, and at right angles to the ¥-Y axis. 3.8 U-Uand V-V Axes Lines passing through the centre of gravity of the profile of the section, representing the principal axes of angle sections. 4. SYMBOLS 4.1 Letter symbols used in this standard have been indicated appropriately in Sections 2 to 6. More explicit definitions for certain symbols, ‘used in the figures and tables of Sections 2 to 6 are given in 4.1.1 and 4.1.2. 4.1.1 Symbols for Dimensions AB the longer and the shorter leg length, ‘of angle section, respectively; B= flange width of beam, column or channel seetions; D_— = depth of beam, column or channel section; Ry dius at fillet or root; Ry = radius at toe: t hickness of web of beam, column or channel section; thickness of leg of angle seetion; and T = thickness of flange of beam, column or channel section, 4.2.2 Symbols for Sectional Properties a= sectional area, C (with subscripts x, y, wor v) = distance of contre of gravity, ‘moment of inertia about X-X axis, Jy = moment of inertia about ¥-Y axis, ‘moment of inertia (Max) about U-U 1, = moment of inertia (Min) about V-V ‘mass of the section per metre length, = modulus of section about X-X modulus of section about ¥-Y radius of gyration about XX
