2L7×4×5/8SLBB double angle
Detailing dimensions and section properties from the AISC Shapes Database, 16th Edition. Values are shown to the nearest 1/16 in. as they appear on a shop drawing.
2L7×4×5/8SLBB has a 7 in. long leg and a 4 in. short leg, 5/8 in. thick, in contact back to back.
It is a double angle set with its short legs back-to-back.
At 44.2 lb per foot it is one of the 30 2L7×4 sizes, which run from 27.2 to 52.4 lb/ft.
For strong-axis bending its section modulus is Sx = 5.12 in³ and its moment of inertia Ix = 15.6 in⁴, with a plastic modulus Zx = 9.38 in³.
