STRUCTURAL SHAPES 1 - 25 STRUCTURAL SHAPES Designations, Dimensions, and Properties The hot rolled shapes shown in Part 1 of this Manual are published in ASTM Specification A6/A6M, Standard Specification for General Requirements for Rolled Steel Plates, Shapes, Sheet Piling, and Bars for Structural Use. W shapes have essentially parallel flange surfaces. The profile of a W shape of a given nominal depth and weight available from different producers is essentially the same except for the size of fillets between the web and flange. HP bearing pile shapes have essentially parallel flange surfaces and equal web and flange thicknesses. The profile of an HP shape of a given nominal depth and weight available from different producers is essentially the same. American Standard Beams (S) and American Standard Channels (C) have a slope of approximately 17 percent (2 in 12 inches) on the inner flange surfaces. The profiles of S and C shapes of a given nominal depth and weight available from diffe
